Now admittedly, productions that include this in their RHS could be rewritten with an additional non-terminal symbol, so that production [43] could be written choice::='(' S? choicelist S? ')' choicelist::=cps ('|' cps)+ And this is exactly what I would like to see done because you could then simply list (apart from the productions themselves) those non-terminal symbols that can be replaced by PEs. Do other developers feel this would make it easier to go from spec to implementation? Now, relating my previous parsing/GE query to PEs: Is it easy, given the current syntax spec, to build a correct parse tree of a DTD before PE replacement? If not, should it be? James K.
