Hi Hans,

now I have a problem :-) What should take precedence if an entity is

so you have an example ?

...

both defined in the dtd and as a \xmltexentity? The way I see it, the latter: e.g., in the DTD, I might declare something for use in a browser but require a different solution when typesetting with ConTeXt. The latest and greatest now takes my DTD definitions instead of the \xmltexentities, which did not happen before. Is that an unwanted side effect or the new default?

we probably have to make it configureable

I don't think it's necessary to have the precedence configurable - I think it would make sense to have \xmltexentity always take precedence.

all is configureable because there's always someone who wants it different

The usual case would be that there are no user-specified \xmltexentity definitions present at all, and the document's DTD entities would be used (by the feature you just added).

So if somebody does have their own \xmltexentity specified, it's because they want that to be used instead. That would allow a user to do something specific for ConTeXt processing, but I don't have a good example for that. Personally I hope I can delete all my \xmltexentity calls now.

of course that assumes that you don't need to revert to tex for rendering them Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
