[...changing to WG list for discussion...] Robert has spotted a typo that has been around unnoticed since WebCGM 1.0. At the least, the SEMICOLON should be inside the QUOTEs, not outside. The other question is: should there be a final SEMICOLON at all? Yes? No? Optional? Unless the answer is "No", I suggest to just move it inside. Chris, do you know the answer? -Lofton.
