From this attribute processing application could infer encoding of external file. This is really necessary for non-English languages where external files are usually in other encoding than us-ascii, utf-8 or ISO latin 1. Type of this attribute should be CDATA and it should contain IANA encoding name (same names are used in XML - e.g. UTF-8, ISO-8859-2, windows-1250, ...). For the same reason, encoding attribute is also part of XInclude if you include text file (parse="text") not XML one. ¨ Jirka ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jirka Kosek e-mail: jirka@kosek.cz http://www.kosek.cz
