Surely this isn't specifically a namespace issue? Wouldn't precisely the same set of processing options arise with, <a_container> <b_container> <a_leaf /> <a_branch> <a_leaf /> </a_branch> <a_leaf /> </b_container> </a_container> IMO the problem is how to process a document instance given only partial knowledge of the intended document type and/or semantics. I can't think of any particularly good reason why there should be a generic solution for that. Cheers, Miles
