Hi Michael, I went through these [1] [2] articles and some other documents.
And I think xml:id provides a unique element identification mechanism. And it use to over come some pitfalls in DTD and XML schema based identifiers. And adding support for xml:id to Xerces we have to come up with a module that can. 1.Access to the xml:id and identify it. 2.validate the xml:id. 3.Parse it to the other processing part. This is how I understand the problem and could you please tell me weather I am on the correct path and how should I improve the background. Thank you. Regards, Ishara Karunarathna.
