Hi Claude, It is my understanding that the merge is occuring in a transient (or could be permanent) infoset. It could be nearly impossible to undo the operation if the xinclude processor does not keep track of the inclusion operations. However, an xinclude may keep the necessary information to undo the operation. Is there any case you have in mind where this could be necessary? cheers Didier -----Original Message----- From: Bullard, Claude L (Len) [mailto:clbullar@i...] Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2000 3:36 PM To: Paul Grosso; xml-dev@x... Subject: RE: XInclude [was: XLink transformations] Is the sense of a merge operation that information merged into another document loses its original identity such that reversing the operation is not guaranteed?

XInclusion in the original source document would occur even before any XSLT transformation occurred and well before any XLinking or styling occurred.
