It would be dangerous to start doing "magic" based on the value of the standalone attribute. XML Parsers are required to check the value of standalone when validating. It is therefore logic to do the same in the DOM and make the check dependent on the validate and validate-if-schema parameters. No change is needed in the specifications since this error type is already controlled by XML. Philippe
