Speaking of document object itself is false. If only the source was already parsed (contradiction in terms), a source view might (minimally) satisfy checkpoint 2.1, because in effect it would have become a document object view. > </Hans> See Al's related comment - he too felt that the "source view" should be defined as showing the unparsed (or re-parsable) document source. If the source view shows only the document source, that means it won't show the result of the application of style sheets, transformations, user agent preferences, and scripts. This means the source view will show what came "over the wire" before any local processing. I'm ok with that if that's how we define it. Is that how source views work in practice? - Ian -- Ian Jacobs (jacobs@w3.org) http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs Tel: +1 831 457-2842 Cell: +1 917 450-8783
