What I am intending is a way to specify that we know that the procedure won't be called for the same entity again, so that the implementation may remove it if desirable. So the style sheet author doesn't have to know anything about memory usage/availability. S/he only gives a hint that this grove is only used once. The node-list-no-order procedure (10.1.2) is an example of such a hint giving procedure. However, as I concluded in another mail, I'm not sure if the grove would actually get removed in many situations. Well... Enough for today... Regards, /Peter Nilsson -- '(?P . (?e . (?t . (?e .
