That would be one solution as I see it. The FPI identify the grammar used in the document, and it's not likely we'll run out of FPIs any time soon :) I consider it extremely important that we have some way of correctly identify the grammar(s) in use, and the DOCTYPE is the traditional method of doing so. Unless there is a /technical/ reason why we can't keep using it, I see no need to change it. There have been arguments that the use of a DOCTYPE imply the use of a DTD, but frankly that's simply an assumption. As long as we agree that the FPI identify *a grammar*, then the connection between that grammar and the method used to express the grammar isn't dependent on the FPI. -- - Tina Holmboe siteSifter Greytower Technologies http://www.sitesifter.co.uk http://www.greytower.net Website Quality and Accessibility TestingReceived on Thursday, 26 June 2008 13:07:14 UTC
