Yeh probably loads of em. Judging by all the mails ages ago about the difference between a nodeset and an rtf and the confusion to a lot of the reveared members of the list I think this is a timebomb waiting to explode. Go there at your own risk! Ciao Chris p.s. Will the list be swamped again with the same question asked 5 times a day about the diff between TR/WD-xsl and 1999/XSL/Transform (which is a damn stupid distinction shouldn't it be /tr/1999 or 1999/xslt) with the question is it an RTF or a nodeset and what IS the difference anyway. I predict it will make it into 1.1 anyway. >Can anyone speculate about other areas where this behavior could >cause pain?
