As a more general question, the standard should perhaps provide an expected reaction by a version x application to content in version x+n? Does such content fall into that defined in 1.5 (weak as it is)? Ignore it? Remove it if you want? What should a 1.2 application do with content from 2.0? regards -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk
