XPointer support

Can anyone clarify if these are true and perhaps add to the list of
XPointer supported parsers/transformers:
For parsers:
* Xerces will allow elements to be accessed if they have an xml:id
attribute
* xmllint allows elements to be accessed with full xpointer syntax,
e.g.
<xi:include href="authent.x ml#xpointer(//connection[@name='cat'])"
parse="xml/>
For transformers:
* xalan doesnt have xpointer support
* xsltproc has full xpointer support
* saxon has limted support, allowing reference to an ID shortname
which is declared in a DTD as xs:id type.

I find variable support for the <xi:include href="..." parse="xml"
xpointer="..."/>

kind of syntax as well; surprisingly different from the <xi:include
href="...#xpoin ter(...)"/> support. Is the 'xpointer' attribute not
standard on an xi:include?

cheers

Hello, can anyone tell me or point me to somewhere what the exact differences (in terms of when would I use what) between XPath, XLink, XPointer and DOM are? Does it require special software to use any of these, or can any XML-aware software (parser/validator or xsl- enginge) use any of these?

Hi everyone, I'm currently updating my website. In a previous incarnation, I had some content with a navigation frame: the displayed page was e.g. "frames.htm", which loaded an html doc "righthandpage.htm" on the right, with a page called "nav.htm"consisting a table of links of the form "righthandpage.htm#section" in the narrower left-hand frame. Now I've changed righthandpage.htm to xml, and of course my navigation links don't work.
