It's not a 100% clear from the spec what should happen when a DTD or schema fails to declare xml:id as having type ID. On careful reading between the lines, I think it true that in that case xml:id is not recognized as an ID attribute because the [attribute type] property or [type definition] property would not be ID. However, I think the draft needs an explicit statement that processes should recognize IDs solely by these properties, and *not* by the name of the attribute (assuming my exegesis is correct). -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@metalab.unc.edu Effective XML (Addison-Wesley, 2003) http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/effectivexml http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN%3D0321150406/ref%3Dnosim/cafeaulaitA
