[References are to the SGML Handbook.] I can't figure out what the delimiter recognition mode [359] is supposed to be when parsing an attribute specification list [327:17] occurring in a data attribute specification [428:20]? (This occurs in an external entity specification [400:1] in an entity declaration [394:18].) I thought initially it would be MD mode but attribute specifications use the VI delimiter which is recognized only in TAG mode [360, figure 3], and TAG mode is said to apply only in a start-tag or an end-tag [361:5], and in any case the DSC delimiter is not recognized in TAG mode. What am I missing? I have a similar problem with result attribute specifications [446:8] and link attribute specifications [443:16]. James Clark jjc@jclark.uucp
