What does the XML spec say the value should be in that case? Offhand, I think your choices are to either kick the user with an error message, or drop in an EntityReference node with null content (which therefore would not affect the attribute's string value), or (if you're flattening entity references) just drop the EntityReference (least useful), or some combination of the above. But I'd suggest you recheck the XML and/or Infoset RECs first to find out whether my memory of how unresolved entity refs may be handled is accurate. ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research
