[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1190768, member: 82144"] Ahhh, I missed icon attribute. This makes the structure/content even more unclear, because according to the DTD a programme can have zero or more icons as well as zero or more URLs (which could be images too). Not at all. I don't see any reason why it couldn't be an image for an actor that stars in the programme. After all, the credits elements (actor etc.) do not provide any opportunity to put a URL there. Even if you don't agree, the point I'm trying to make is that it's not as "self explanatory" as you say. Your example is only one source; other sources can and will be different. I wasn't thinking of custom tables. Rather, I was thinking of "core columns" on the program table to hold the required internet database record IDs... or adding missing meta-data columns directly. I agree that 3rd party custom tables should be avoided. [/QUOTE]
