the xpath and xquery documents (REC and also the PER 2nd edition documents) have the text An error can be represented by a URI reference that is derived from the error QName as follows: an error with namespace URI NS and local part LP can be represented as the URI reference NS#LP. For example, an error whose QName is err:XPST0017 could be represented as http://www.w3.org/2005/xqt-errors#XPST0017. However that example URI reference (and all similar ones) is a bad link as the document returned by the URI http://www.w3.org/2005/xqt-errors doesn't have an id or name anchor of XPST0017 Although I've raised this as an issue on the specs it can easily be fixed by editing http://www.w3.org/2005/xqt-errors which is less of a problem as it is not in TR space so can can be edited in place. Basically just want to add an id to every dt as in: <dt><a href= "http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath20/#ERRXPST0017">err:XPST0017</a></dt> <dt id="XPST0017"><a href= "http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath20/#ERRXPST0017">err:XPST0017</a></dt> David
David, thanks for your suggestion. We have changed the namespace document for the err: namespace (http://www.w3.org/2005/xqt-errors) exactly as you suggested. I have marked this bug RESOLVED/FIXED. Because we adopted the suggestion you offered, I hope you will mark it CLOSED.
has the updated file gone live yet? I don't see it yet (from the UK) and the link in the original comment still fails to match any id in the document. I do see the updated file in member space at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/xsl-query-specs/xquery-operators/ns-errors-original.html but not at http://www.w3.org/2005/xqt-errors David
David, please accept our apologies for the delay in publishing the revised namespace document at the URI of the target namespace. Please check again, as I believe that omission has been rectified. If you agree, then please mark this bug CLOSED. Thanks!
thanks
