Subject: Re: Issue: fragment identifier for href attribute
I feel a bit uneasy about hard-coding a prohibition on fragment identifiers. This feels like it is trespassing on the domain on RFC 3023 and its successors. Couldn't we say something like this? - the meaning of the fragment identifier is determined by the registration of the media type of the data returned by dereferencing the URI - a RELAX NG schema must not use a fragment identifier for a URI if the registration of the media type of the data returned by dereferencing the URI does not specify the meaning of fragment identifiers for that media type - as of the time of writing, the registration of {text,application}/xml is given by RFC 3023, which does not specify the meaning of fragment identifiers (although it mentions XPointer) In any case, it would be implementation dependent whether fragment identifiers are supported, just as it is implementation dependent what URI schemes are supported. Basically, I feel that we should treat the URI reference as a black box whose semantics are specified externally by the appropriate RFCs. --On 03 July 2001 01:23 +0900 Murata Makoto <mura034@attglobal.net> wrote: > David RR Webber wrote: > >> What about an XPointer? >> http://somelocation.com/registry/things/that.xml(foobar) > > Not blessed by RFC 3023 yet, since XPointer is not a W3C recommendation > yet. > > I might eventually create a new RFC as a draft standard.
