Lemme expound on my personal position... I personally don't really find anything too wrong with the current implementation, aside from the split between JaXPath and BaseXPath. That's only there for assisting in testing some things, and I'm certain they could be worked around. I personally don't care for any dynamic, run-time discovery of the object-model to pick the right navigator. I just don't really see the point. Suggestions I've made here are simply because folks keep saying "Something *must* be done!". So, might as well throw in my thoughts for possible solutions. But I'm not convinced anything really needs to be done. So, let's take a step backwards, and justify anything reflection-related. Why do we really need it? Use-cases, anyone? -bob _______________________________________________ Jaxen-interest mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jaxen-interest
