Subject: st: xtlogit with a fractional response

Dear Statalist,

I was attempting to analyse a fractional response with -xtlogit propn x1
,re i(id)-. However, it seems that all nonmissing values other than zero
are regarded as a positive outcome. This is not the situation with -glm
proportion xvars ,fam(bin) link(logit) robust-

This is mentioned in the FAQ 'How do you estimate a model when the
dependent variable is a proportion?' at
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/stat/logit.html

'glm has since been enhanced specifically to deal with fractional
response data.'

I was wondering if there is a way that xtlogit can be used with
fractional response panel data? 
(Other options include glm and the cluster robust variance, or xtgee.)

Best wishes, Garry
