I also note that the order of declarations of ELEMENTs, and attributes within ATTLISTs is undefined. This is an area where different implementers of the API might return different orders, so that it is marginally more difficult to check if 2 DTDs are "equivalent". Is it possible or desirable to suggest a canonical order for the output of either through the API? [Alternatively, can Java check for the equality of 2 Enumerations (other than by the user explicitly building a Hashtable)?] P.
