Definitely: HYQ -- obsolete, and not that nice. FOREIGN -- in this context, I think extensibility is bad, not good. DITTO -- not worth the trouble, I think. TOKEN -- space delimited thingies is harder in Unicode, and probably not that useful anyway. Maybe: SPACE -- ranges in orthogonal coordinate spaces seem too limited -- We might want something suitable for implementing client-side imagemaps (and other image links), but SPACE doesn't give enough. PATTERN -- we all agree that this would be really useful, but it may be a bit of a bother to implement. I'm on the fence about this... Everything else should stay in (essentially basic tree addressing functions). -- David _________________________________________ David Durand dgd@cs.bu.edu \ david@dynamicDiagrams.com Boston University Computer Science \ Sr. Analyst http://www.cs.bu.edu/students/grads/dgd/ \ Dynamic Diagrams --------------------------------------------\ http://dynamicDiagrams.com/ MAPA: mapping for the WWW \__________________________
