Basically, SVG and MathML are treated as "other applicable specifications", so you can apply their requirements to the DOM. You are right that you have to derive what this means in terms of text/ html source text from the implementation requirements. > * XLink attributes on foreign elements are required to use "xlink" as > the prefix, rather than allowing anything like in XML. Rather, if you use another prefix, it's not a prefix and the attributes aren't XLink attributes. > * The requirement on the values of xmlns:xlink attributes and other > xmlns attributes used on foreign elements to use the specific > namespaces, and that declaring other namespaces is not permitted. Rather, there's nothing that makes declaring other namespaces possible. Declaring other namespaces isn't forbidden. It's merely impossible. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
