Perhaps you are unaware of the DTD and its role in *ML languages? Many people seem to know so little about SGML and XML that what I think must be hostile provocations is simply sheer ignoranace of the languages. Then again, many of the users of these languages are also unable to understand how they are supposed to design applications with them, but that is no excuse for not knowing the language when designing an alternative to it. -- Erik Naggum, Oslo, Norway Act from reason, and failure makes you rethink and study harder.
