Wouldn't it be simpler to do as Rick J. suggests and bring Doctypeness back into the fold of reasonable ways to declare contexts? RELAX plus some schematron or even XSDLite plus some schematron would go a long ways. Or we go back to the old days of SGML and just say <furnitureTable> which is a bit more firm than an OR group of table types. Studying the order of emergence of properties is revealing to me. Identifierness is the last guy out of the hopper and understanding how any given system is capable of producing identity as a value is useful to understanding what identity actually means. The web doesn't start from identity. It ends there. len From: Simon St.Laurent [mailto:simonstl@s...] I think a strictly pattern-based approach would offer context - both ancestor and descendant context - as an answer to that, though context can occasionally be misleading or abused.
