Sorry, this one is just ludicrous. Notepad isn't claiming to be parsing XML. It's not at all like having the IE6 XML parser default to believing in "XML" that clearly is broken; it's not creating/perpetuating an interop problem. Apples compare best against other apples, not oranges. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joshua Allen" <joshuaa@m...> To: "Rick Jelliffe" <ricko@a...>; <xml-dev@l...> Sent: Sunday, September 09, 2001 12:46 AM Subject: RE: Bad News on IE6 XML Support >No, they chose to penalize everyone else's XML systems.

Should notepad.exe also alert users to anything that might fail in Oracle or MSXML3? When someone loads the invalid file in MSXML3, it bombs -- does the user say "Notepad let me parse that file! Who is right, Microsoft or Microsoft?!?"
