We're clarifying the rule box like this: [[ Space-separated tokens are the maximal non-empty subsequences not containing the whitespace characters #x9, #xA, #xD or #x20. ]] -- http://www.w3.org/2004/01/rdxh/spec 1.244 I hope this makes it clear that yes, you can have leading and trailing whitespace. FYI, the informative mechanical rule says to apply normalize-space() and then tokenize() with "[ \t\r\n]+". Hmm... that's a bit redundant, isn't it? Oh well. We've also got a number of relevant tests in progress, e.g. http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/grddl-wg/td/pendinglist#spaces-in-rel -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E
