Re: [xml-dev] ID/IDREF is evil

Hi Mike,

I am not sure I understand the need for DTDs... You can use xs:ID and xs:IDREF/xs:IDREFS in XML Schema, isn't it? And <data type="ID"/>, etc. in Relax NG.

Best Regards,
George

I can think of plenty of reasons not to use ID/IDREF without that one.
#1 being that you need one of those ghastly DTDs.
Not if you name your ID attributes 'xml:id'.

Doesn't help on the IDREF side...
