Subject: Pointless Mixed Content for ContentType
The ContentType XML Schema type in the XACML 3.0 core specification (Committee Specification 01) is defined to have mixed content. However, given the way in which the content of the <Content> element is used to construct an XML data structure for XPath processing, any non-whitespace characters before or after the single child element of the <Content> element would result in an XML document that is not well-formed. For example, given this <Content> element: <xacml:Content> foobar <widget/> foobar </xacml:Content> which satisfies the ContentType definition, the corresponding XML document for XPath processing would look like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> foobar <widget/> foobar which is clearly invalid. The "mixed" attribute should be removed from the definition of ContentType. Regards, Steven
