It is only for the XML parser and the document author -- just like entity declarations and entity references, CDATA section boundaries, the encoding declaration, and the bits & bytes that comprise the encoded document. >From within XSLT you only have access to those things that are in the XPath/XSLT data model, which are essentially only those things that are intended for the application. You don't operate on the markup in the original document; you operate on the logical structures implied by some of that markup. It is the parser's job to sift through the markup and just tell the application what those structures are. - Mike ____________________________________________________________________________ mike j. brown, fourthought.com | xml/xslt: http://skew.org/xml/ denver/boulder, colorado, usa | personal: http://hyperreal.org/~mike/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
