But unless the parser passes through >positional information, there's no way an application can do this. I would strongly support this interpretation. It's the natural one from HTML browsers and it is what I have implemented in XLL in JUMBO. I have found that the best way forward for me is that every WF fragment possesses a URL, since it may further reference other fragments. This works OK for me as far as I have got, but I am not a URL specialist. I don't know what happens when we get XML which is formed 'in vacuo' - e.g. as part of a serialized object, typed in on the command line, etc. :-) P.
