Quite frankly, I am only amused when I see people rebel against the assertion that the "a" element has a "type". Granted, I use an "XML framework" that is created according to what I want "to see", http://celtic.benderweb.net/webit/, most of the "XML programming" that I do would break without a notion of "types". Equally, the views of others don't really affect what I do in Scheme;) If XML is only markup, party on! To those interested in that, "filthy", programming languages point-of-view, I offer some examples of interesting XML transformations on the WebIt! mailing list: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=webit-discuss These examples depend on "programming languages" notations of state-passing, most notably that of "monads". (These transformations are expressed in the Scheme language.) Jim Bender
