As I understand the XML specification, the meaning of an empty "xml:lang" attribute is defined as overriding any language inherited from the parent element and reverting to the processor default. So it might make sense that if no language is indicated in an included file, it is taken as unspecified and explicitly marked as such in the larger context where it's included. https://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-xml-20081126/#sec-lang-tag ******************************** Rob Cavicchio rcavi...@opentext.com
