Namespace names don't have to be dereferenceable: "http://www.ccil.org/~cowan/labor_yutz" is a perfectly good namespace name, even though there's nothing there (you'll get an error if you try to dereference it), because I assigned it and the namespace names beginning http://www.ccil.org/~cowan" belong to me. In particular, there is no reason why the referent of the namespace name should be a DTD. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan cowan@c... You tollerday donsk? N. You tolkatiff scowegian? Nn.
