I have a question regarding the expected behavior for caclulating the digest value of the null URI (URI="") in case if reference does not contain a Transforms element. URI="" identifies the nodeset (minus any comment nodes) of the XML resource containing the signature. The Transforms element is optional. Does application that calculates a digest value has to skip this reference from calculation, or skip the digest value element, or skip the text of the digest value element, or indicate an error/warning? Is the test for such expected behavior a part of the compatibility tests? Any reply is appreciated. ___________________________________________ Igor Kobzar Software Design Engineer Hewlett-Packard Company Phone: (408) 343 6150 Fax: (408) 343 6777
