I need to do some ConTeXt work inside an XML-proces. In principle this works for most TeX-code through an appropriate xmlsetup that calls \xmlcontext.
However some code has problems, and it will be no surprise that it concerns table suff. The error is:

Misplaced \omit ...
\@tbxmultispans #1->\omit 
                          \scratchcounter #1\relax \advance \scratchcounter …

As this code runs fine in normal ConTeXt environments, the suspicion is some catcode problem. Can I set inside the \xmlsetup-code something to have \xmlcontext using the correct catcode's, iff that turns out to be the problem of course.

Thanks in advance.

Allthough typesetting through xmlcontext crashed, while direct typesetting did not, the culprit does not seem to be in the different routes. After one day ploughing through \halign and friends, I think I can nail it to a specific \omit in my code. Not that all problems are solved with that find, but it is a start. Anyway, for the moment no reason to panic about \xmlcontext. I hope this will please Hans Hagen, a bit.

ah .. \omit ... then you really ended up in the dark internals .. 
sometimes a \relax helps but tex does some nasty lookahead in alignments 
that can easily interfere .. hard to fight
