<tt>Hi,<br>
<br>
We are using ParaView and VisIt to visualize some data in XDMF
format.<br>
<br>
I have a simple XDMF file (see below), which loads and shows in
VisIt, but which crashes in ParaView. It seems to be crashing
ParaView because the </tt><tt>CollectionType='Temporal', but
there are no timesteps defined. If I add a time value, e.g.
<Time Value='0'></Time> inside the grid, then it does
not crash.<br>
<br>
But that begs the question:<br>
- Is my Xdmf without the "</tt><tt><Time Value='0'>"</tt><tt>
a validly formed file, or am I just being lucky that VisIt can
read it?<br>
<br>
