Hi Harald, Did you really mean to use the "f" word? Best to avoid that here. For your DTD problem, you have the previously-stated options, and perhaps one more... There is no reason that your DTD general rule has to match the EDD rule. That is, you could make the EDD rule as restrictive as you need for authoring purposes, then relax/adjust the DTD so that the XML parser stays happy. If you are not using the XML and DTD for authoring purposes, it really doesn't matter what the DTD says, as long as the markup is valid. You do mention translation, though... if that is considered "authoring" on that end where the structure tree might be altered, then this suggestion is not valid. You'll simply need to comply with the XML spec somehow, as Xerces (Frame's XML parser) interprets. Russ
