I'll have some ideas myself later on today. It obviously can be quite a simple thing, and obviously an implementation-neutral way of doing it, with maybe an agreed-upon way of registering new fields, would be cool. No, IMHO. The author stuff belongs with source XML. If the person writing the stylesheet wants to add it to the stylesheet, then fine, but not as part of the fo 'DTD' please. I do that sort of thing by adding <xsl:comment> to the stylesheet. HTH DaveP
