My understanding (or > rather, recollection) of shortref mapping is that it's an input > markup shortcut. Any shortref characters in your input instance > are normalized away by the parser. I was under the impression that I could use a shortref entity just as I would any other text entity. I could place it in the text block at the position I want and it would be "expanded" or used at when the text is processed. I used to be able to do this, but a lot has changed since then (not the least of which is the use of SUBDOCs!). The entity must be defined since Jade doesn't fail with an undefined entity. It would be useful, but I'm able to work around it for now (thanks to previous postings about adding spaces). ...Chuck Darney DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
