In article <004101c398ad$645aeaf0$6401a8c0@pcukmka> you write: >Simply the fact that I can't expand my entities until I know what my >namespace bindings are, and I can't expand my namespace URIs until I >know what my entities refer to. I'm not sure whether you're concerned about recognising entity references or entity declarations. I have mentioned the possibility of entity names being namespaced, but that was not a necessary part of the proposal. If you mean that the entity-binding attributes can't be recognised, then (a) I didn't specify whether the entity bindings apply to the other attributes and namespace declarations on the same element - that would have to be decided, and (b) the xmlent prefix could be a magic, fixed one like xml (ugly but possible). And to re-iterate what I said to start with: I don't like this proposal very much. I just wanted to ensure that an obvious approach was not ignored. -- Richard
