As I mentioned in my prior message, the rules for attribute normalization are not the same as the rules for content normalization: An attribute declared as CDATA will not necessarily have its leading/trailing whitespace removed. Look at the table of examples at the end of section 3.3.3 of XML 1.0 (Second Edition). It's right there for all the world to see--normalized CDATA attribute values containing leading/trailing whitespace. So once again I ask (with the continuing hope that one day I may get an actual answer): Should an SVG processor ignore leading/trailing whitespace in attribute values? Yes or no, that's all I need to know. Steve Schafer Fenestra Technologies Corp http://www.fenestra.com/
