On your web page "http://www.w3.org/XML/xml-names-19990114-errata", item NE09 could better clarify how it applies to section 5.2 of web page "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/". NE09 says "The empty string, though it is a legal URI reference, cannot be used as a namespace name." Section 5.2 says "The default namespace can be set to the empty string. This has the same effect, within the scope of the declaration, of there being no default namespace." I believe your intent in NE09 is to leave xmlns="" legal, and merely to forbid xmlns:whatever="", and if indeed this is your intent, then I suggest saying something explicit about the default namespace in NE09. --Mike Amling Sr. Programmer/Analyst RMCis Corporation Phone: (630) 955-1310 x133 mamling@rmcis.comReceived on Friday, 27 August 2004 16:49:02 UTC
