My recollection is that the issue of qualified names in attribute values was explicitly contemplated, discussed, and decided by the WG that the specification did not need to take a stand on what people put in attribute values because, first off, no change to XML was necessary to make colons within attribute values legal, and secondly, because the definer of an attribute would be within his rights to say that values of certain attributes should be interpreted as namespace-qualified names. Since the WG strove to make the specification say as little as tractable, the issue was left in silence, neither advocated nor forbidden. *************************************************************************** This is xml-dev, the mailing list for XML developers.
