IIRC, w3c schema allow to specify restrictions on an element's content. So with a schame we could syntactically constraint a Year element with something like "\d+( BC)?" so that we have only valid years - which I suppose would count as an "attempt to prevent this" in your statement. Which we can't do AFAIK with a DTD. -- Yann Dirson <Yann.Dirson@fr.alcove.com> http://www.alcove.com/ Free-Software Engineer Ingénieur Logiciel-Libre Free-Software time manager Responsable du temps Informatique-Libre
