Re: [xml] xml:space and xml:lang problem

[Rob Richards <rrichards ctindustries net>]

One thing to note about the patch however is that the the value for 
xml:space will be enforced again. Currently, its value could be anything 
since the checks are bypassed, but with the patch, the behavior reverts 
back to how it was in 2.5.x where only "default" or "preserve" are 
allowed. Everything else results in an xmlFatalErrMsgStr.
