A level-one DOM does not require that much, and we could elect not to deliver certain information (like comments). I am not suggesting that we deliver the information required for the XML-specific DTD nodes. If we omit comments, then SAX-J would have to return only the following information: - elements - attributes - PIs - texts This should be sufficient for building a useful DOM. Strictly by the book, we specify whether each attribute was specified or defaulted, and we should specify which text is ignorable whitespace. All the best, David -- David Megginson ak117@f...
