Ken, what do you mean by a serialization surrogate? The example I use in class is to map  to "<" and  to ">" for non-XML sequences in my stylesheet such as ASP directives by using xsl:output-character. That way I can write well-formed XSLT and let the serializer worry about putting out naked characters. What if I was using those characters in my stylesheet and two trading partners agreed to use the same private characters for their own purpose? Their data characters would be lost in the serialization. Unlikely, but I think more likely than 
 being coded in someone's XML. I hope this helps. . . . . . . . . . . . .
