True, we are assuming object-orientation. I have updated the text to read: "These interfaces should be encapsulated as a self-contained object or some similar data structure in a non object-oriented programming environment. The host runtime environment must automatically create a unique instance of this object or data structure for every widget instantiated by the user." I've personally have never programmed in a non object-oriented environment so am unsure of what terminology to use. Any suggestions would be helpful. -- Marcos Caceres http://datadriven.com.au [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-appformats/2007Feb/0131.html [2] http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-widgets-reqs-20070209/
