Sorry David, I don't think I agree. The proposal is merely to ban xml:base on the elements of the SOAP vocabulary itself. These include body, envelope, etc. Surely every SOAP processor inspects those directly and checks them in all kinds of ways, and if you prefer to depend on schema validation, xml:base would only be accepted, I believe, if the corresponding attribute reference were on the (complex types of the) appropriate element declarations. Leave it out, and you're done. Schema ensures the right behavior. Whatever the other merits of supporting of not supporting xml:base, I don't see validation as a problem. What am I missing? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Noah Mendelsohn Voice: 1-617-693-4036 Lotus Development Corp.
