Good! Glad to hear it. It's funny but it seems that the only way a maintainer can know how popular a project is is by how many people complain about something not working. Not exactly optimal feedback - it encourages me to make a 'broken' release every now and then just to see who notices ;-) > That said, I am curious about your recommendations for handling > 'xlink' constructs.

That's a big project. What I would do is to not touch the core IDOM, but to parse the document as-is, then pass the IDOM_Document instance off to a custom library method that you write to handle XLink'ed nodes. It would traverse the tree, and replace the XLink nodes with the ones being referered to. To me it's simpler to do it in Perl. Otherwise, you'll have to implement it in C++, and create some subclass of IDOMParser, like IDOMParser-XLink, that does it for you automatically. > I keep bashing away at the AIX exception-handling issues as time > permits, but have gotten exactly nowhere with it :-(.

I wish I had some valuable information, but I don't. jas. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
