Hi Chris, <YourComment> I would love to hear how you think that contextual selectors and attribute selectors are expected to work without structural integrity. <YourComment> <Reply> Hoops a word missing, this should be: structural integrity _validation_. A document may be structurally OK but the end parser may not verify the structural integrity. In the interpretation, if an error occurs, an error is reported anyway. A) The error is reported by the parser B) the error is reported by the interpreted that uses the parser. There is no great differences for the end user. In both case you have an error he probably won't understand :-) (in the browser context) Structural integrity is the responsibility of the emitter. However, when electronic commerce transactions are the kind of operation done. Validation may be necessary for the receiver to be sure that the transaction is OK, so in that case a double check may be necessary A) at the emitter end and the receiver end. However, the interpreter in that case is probably not a browser but an other kind of application. </Reply> Regards Didier PH Martin mailto:martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.netfolder.com XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
