Are both valid? If not what should be returned? The DOM specification doesn't say anything about that. It is defined as a URI reference by the XML 1.0 specification. The Infoset doesn't say anything either. So I guess both relative and absolute forms of the systemId are valid in that case, even if DOM Level 2 doesn't give access to the baseURI. Philippe
