Subject: Context labels in XML?

Is there a way to output context labels to XML? I'm drawing up an EDD (Frame 7 for Mac going to XML) that uses the usual Section tag, which contains a Head tag with the header, and then other information, which may include more nested Sections. Sections occasionally next five deep. I can change the way Frame displays the headers using the "Count ancestors named" rule in the EDD, and I've implemented Context labels which distinguish the various levels of heads internally in Frame (the cross reference dialogue box, for example, lists "Head(Level1)," "Head(Level2)," "Head(Level3)" among the types of elements). Problem: Is there any way to refer to Context labels in read/write rules for XML? Something like this: element "head1" { is fm element "Head(Level1)"; } doesn't give any errors, but doesn't get used (the XML outputs tags named Head, the name of the FM element, suggesting no rule was used). Same thing happens when brackets or braces are used instead of parentheses. Something that output the head level as an attribute would be fine too, though I can't find a way to refer to a context label as an fm property. The Structure Application Development Guide, as far as I can tell, has little to say about this. Does anyone know a way around this? thanks much, Dan Visel ** To unsubscribe, send a message to majordomo@omsys.com ** ** with "unsubscribe framers" (no quotes) in the body. **
