Yes I know, I forsaw the problem that a client may not understand the urn, thats why I like my way of defining appropriate replacements, if a client does not understand the x element, it can just ignore it, and it wont break displaying of the message it will just come out as the original text. Also im not sure if inline x elements are even allowed in the xhtml segment. _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
