Yes, the normal way could be for example to have the illformed flag on each event not set, and an unnormal way would be to have the flag set. In particular, "the processor MAY make unprocessed data from the document (with intermingled character data and markup) available to the application" and there is no constraint on what the application may or must not do with such data. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
