I haven't checked the facts, but I recall it being suggested that we had a number (don't know how many) of implementation reports saying they failed the corresponding test case and they were using Xerces. I was under the impression there is also a C version of Xerces. Hmm. Easy to check: http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/index.html Well its c++, but close. You have a point though. I don't have numbers to back up any impression of popularity. I'm pretty sure its the most common in the java world. I'm not sure about elsewhere. Brian
