David,
Hm, this is good to know.
At 05:30 PM 8/21/2007, you wrote:

The schema is parsed when the document tree is built
No, it also applies to basic (not schema aware processors) and DTD
specified element content.
saxon * B for example defaults to stripping white space in (dtd specified)
element content but has command line options to not do this or to strip
all white space (whether in element or mixed content)
-sall Strip all whitespace text nodes
-signorable Strip ignorable whitespace text nodes (default)
-snone Strip no whitespace text nodes
I take it that "DTD-specified element content" relies on a DOCTYPE
declaration and the usual negotiation across SYSTEM or PUBLIC
identifiers to find the DTD. And that this would apply to all
XML-parsed input, not just the main source document.
Cheers,
Wendell
