Yes, but my point was that the layer of indirection *does* matter, because the element deemed invalid (in the form data instance document) is not the one that the pseudo-class is being applied to (in the XForms document). These are different because a different element is being validated, not because it is necessarily being validated in a different way. Michael -- YesLogic Prince prints XML! http://yeslogic.com
