Thanks John. I don't interpret the current draft in this way, but I'll have a better look and see what I missed. Maybe the problem is my brain is just saying "Yeah, it's namespaces" and not looking at all the details! Maybe what's needs is an extra sentence along the lines of: "A MicroXML parser presents xmlns* attributes to an application as regular attributes and does not perform any special processing of these attributes. Nor does a MicroXML parser perform any special processing of attributes whose name's include a prefix declared by xmlns* attributes. When using an attribute with a namespace prefix, an application SHOULD use the namespace name associated with the prefix, rather than the prefix, but this is not required." Feel free to re-write that in English! Pete Cordell Codalogic Ltd Interface XML to C++ the easy way using C++ XML data binding to convert XSD schemas to C++ classes.
