I have hit a strange bug with Amaya 9 (it is on Windows but I would not think it is relevant). I have an XHTML1.1 file with doctype and all the rest of it. However, I do one more thing: I add some own attributes to my file. I do it in an XML proper fashion, namely I use a namespace declaration in the <html> element and use the namespace prefix. I know it is not 100% kosher, because I do not add my internal DTD to the XHTML DTD. In other words, from an DTD validity point of view it is not fully valid. However, the reaction of Amaya 9 on this file is: - it accepts it without any warning as a legal and valid XHTML file (does not ask the usual question whether I want to see the errors, edit the invalid file, etc). I can therefore edit the file in XHTML, everything looks perfect. - however: it silently *removes all private attributes* from the file. I think this behaviour is a bug. [I use an XHTML file to create presentation slides, but the file is run through a private XML processor partially controlled by those attributes...] Ivan -- Ivan Herman W3C Communications Team, Head of Offices C/o W3C Benelux Office at CWI, Kruislaan 413 1098SJ Amsterdam, The Netherlands tel: +31-20-5924163; mobile: +31-641044153; URL: http://www.w3.org/People/Ivan/
