* Anders W. Tell | | As a part of a small R&D project Im I trying to look into the issues | of elements vs. attributes and having attributes in endtags | (im know its outside current xml standard). | | Is there anyone that could point me to research /papers/discussion on | the net ? I doubt that there is anything, but if there is you can find it at <URL:http://www.oasis-open.org/cover/> Some cons I thought of: - additional complexity in APIs and syntaxes, or, if these are kept as they are, in parsers - endtag attributes are not available until the entire element has been parsed (and it may be _very_ large), so that if the values influence the treatment of the element contents in any way, this may cause performance problems The only pro I can think of is pretty far-fetched: - might be easier to generate markup from some kinds of applications, since attribute values would not have to be determined until after the element contents had been written out --Lars M. xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
