That is correct but I the W3C text isn't very explicit. There are copyrighted DTDs that use many of the same elements and attributes as are in HTML and predate it. <p>, <a>, <table>, <body> etc aren't exactly novel stuff. So even parts of the text and DTDs aren't that defensible. Hmm? Should we be writing and copyrighting schema as fast as we can in any domain we can? Seems a lot more lucrative than squatting on domain names. Len http://www.mp3.com/LenBullard Ekam sat.h, Vipraah bahudhaa vadanti. Daamyata. Datta.

I should have qualified this as derivation of technique, not derivation of the text as a whole.
