It's possible, sure, but I'm not sure it'll get done any time soon. The "Document Type" as reported is a "nice" name for a given FPI that we have a mapping for. It's a manual mapping and not one determined on the fly from the chosen DTD. Given that it would also be quite a bit of work to make it extract the FPI and display that instead for unknown Document Types -- and I'm not convinced of it's wide applicability -- it's not apt to be very high on the list of priorities. It's a good idea though, and -- as an unnamed QA Engineer I know has been known to say -- "Thanks for your feedback on this.". :-)Received on Friday, 20 October 2000 13:37:05 GMT
