Yeah, well, IE 5.0 also fails to conform to XML 1.0, in a variety of quite serious ways. I.e. CDATA sections don't work, entities stop working if you use CSS (?!?), escaping < with < only works if the next character isn't a "?". Oh yes, it also violates the namespace draft by hardwiring the prefix "html". Since they rebuilt it from scratch for this release, we could cut them some slack as standard release 1.0 bugs, but it's hard not to be a bit irritated, since there has been excellent free software available since 1997 that does these things correctly. -Tim xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
