Ha, little endian. We big-endians would say "RDF". But regardless, there still needs to be an application-specific vocabulary which can then be incorporated into an RDF or Topic Map system. So, to take my example. <MyOriginElement xinclude:href="http://spam.com/doc.xml" incstyle:href="http://spam.com/foo.xslt" incstyle:param="myvar='hello world'" xmlns:incstyle="http://includestyling.xml.org/2000"/> All you'd have to do for RDF incorporation (I'm just a newbie to XTM) is wrap it in an <rdf:RDF> element and then you automagically have the triples you want: ['MyOriginElement', 'http://www.w3.org/1999/XML/xinclude#href', 'http://spam.com/doc.xml'] ['MyOriginElement', 'http://includestyling.xml.org/2000#href', 'http://spam.com/foo.xslt'] ['MyOriginElement', 'http://includestyling.xml.org/2000#param', 'myvar="hello world"'] -- Uche Ogbuji Principal Consultant uche.ogbuji@f... +1 303 583 9900 x 101 Fourthought, Inc. http://Fourthought.com 4735 East Walnut St, Ste.
