Description Sandy Gao 2005-09-09 02:23:38 UTC 
Is whitespace allowed in Identity Constraint XPath expressions?

The BNF in the XML Schema REC doesn't mention whitespace. Neither does the 
equivalent BNF in XPath. But elsewhere in XPath it says whitespace is allowed 
almost anywhere.

Comment 1 Sandy Gao 2005-09-09 02:24:28 UTC 
Whitespace should be permitted in XPath expressions. An erratum will be created 
to reflect this.

Proposed erratum approved at the March 28 telecon.

Erratum added as item E1-6.
