| Another reason is that you might have slightly variant DTDs for the | same conceptual document type, and a production process whereby the | documents start of conforming to say an author-friendly DTD, and then | progress to conform to a stricter 'delivery' DTD. Again, this can | only happen if you can switch in a DTD at document load time. Sure, there could be lots of good reasons to use variant doctypes. My only point was that switching output formats isn't one of them. | However, the reason I started along this line of thought was based | around the much more comfortable area of output formats, i.e. style | sheets. We certainly need an easy way to prepend instructions to bind | a style sheet to a document at delivery time, so that its style is not | bound into the DTD declaration. A processing instruction 'up front' | would be the obvious way to do this: | | <?XML version="1.0"?> | <?XML-STYLE ...> This method, proposed by James Clark in this list about a month ago, is very close to what the ERB seems to be converging on as the way to do simple stylesheet linking.
