Marcus, what is an XML anti-pattern? Are you saying that this: <field name="elevation" value="12000"/> is an anti-pattern, whereas this: <elevation>12000</elevation> is not? Does anti-pattern mean bad/undesirable? So this: <field name="elevation" value="12000"/> is a bad/undesirable way to write XML, but this: <elevation>12000</elevation> is a good way to write XML? /Roger
