While working on implementations using SAX I've noticed that there is no way to know if an element is an empty element or not (e.g <Para/>). This could perhaps be done using some kind of lookahead, but should that be necessary? Perhaps a change to the startElement method in the DocumentHandler interface could fix this. This is how the method is defined in the Draft Specification (1998-01-12): public void startElement (String name, AttributeMap attributes) throws Exception Perhaps this should be something like: public void startElement (String name, AttributeMap attributes, boolean isempty) throws Exception Best regards, Geir O. xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
