I just noticed a minor inconsistency in the XML spec: There are three kinds of marked section declarations in XML (CDATA, INCLUDE and IGNORE). With INCLUDE and IGNORE, whitespace is allowed between the keywords and the delimiters on either side. That is, both <![ INCLUDE [...]]> and <![IGNORE [...]]> are acceptable. But such whitespace is _not_ allowed in a CDATA declaration. Is there an explicit reason for this, or is it just the way things happened to turn out? SGML allows whitespace in all three cases. -Steve *************************************************************************** This is xml-dev, the mailing list for XML developers.
