Seems we both agree on that, >let's see what the Working Group think about this :-) I guess my main point is that the current streaming subset (no xpointer scheme) is far from optimal. At best it requires you to reload and reparse each document for each xpointer. What actually seems to be getting implemented by streaming implementations is a different subset that uses no XPointers at all. I'd like to conisder if this should be blessed. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@metalab.unc.edu Effective XML (Addison-Wesley, 2003) http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/effectivexml http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN%3D0321150406/ref%3Dnosim/cafeaulaitA
