[My apologies that these comments are coming in after the end of the Last Call comment period.] Section 7.6.1.1 In the last bulleted list, the first bullet describes the concept of captured substrings and how they are identified numerically, with the entire string matched being identified by the number zero. The second bullet in the list describes the syntax for back references, used to refer to previously captured substrings within the regular expression. Neither this bullet nor the syntax for back references defined in [23] and [23a] appears to prohibit \0 from appearing as a back reference within the regular expression, but clearly that would make no sense. This restriction needs to be stated explicitly, or production [23a] needs to be modified to prevent \0 from being a syntactically correct back reference. Thanks, Henry [Speaking on behalf of reviewers from IBM.] ------------------------------------------------------------------ Henry Zongaro Xalan development IBM SWS Toronto Lab T/L 969-6044; Phone +1 905 413-6044 mailto:zongaro@ca.ibm.com
