I think DTDs are still in wide use (mostly users coming from an SGML background) and shouldn't be ruled out. Anyway, making validation pluggable is probably the most important thing; IMHO the validation mechanism should also allow custom java-based validation components, which might be very useful for example to validate against external databases. -- -- Bertrand Delacr�taz, www.codeconsult.ch -- web technologies consultant - OO, Java, XML, C++
