Can you be more specific, please? An example, not taken from the test case: <span about="ex:foo" property="ex:bar" datatype="" >The human brain has about 10<sup>11</sup> neurons.</span> The output demanded by rigourous adherence to the spec is: ex:foo ex:bar "The human brain has about 1011 neurons." Cognition's output is: ex:foo ex:bar "The human brain has about 10[11] neurons." which I feel is slightly more useful. (Of course, "^11" might be even better, but that would require some sort of heuristic to determine whether the superscript has been used as an exponent, or a footnote, or as something else entirely.) Basically, Cognition will convert from text/html to text/plain, not through a simple concatenation of text nodes, but in a manner as close as possible to a text browser (like lynx). I know this deviates from the RDFa spec, and I'm not suggesting that the spec change - I'm just saying that I'm happy to be non-conformant in this regard. -- Toby A Inkster <mailto:mail@tobyinkster.co.uk> <http://tobyinkster.co.uk>
