Has anyone else observed this behavior? http://www.saxproject.org/apidoc/org/xml/sax/ContentHandler.html clearly documents that such behavior is allowed, so your application code must expect it. It's also tip #2 in http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2001/12/05/sax2.html which uses an example that's almost identical with the one in your question ... :) - Dave Visit our website at http://www.ubswarburg.com This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
