(I hope I have it right :-) ><!ATTLIST EventSet > %FeatureDescriptor; > > listenerType CDATA #REQUIRED > isInDefaultEventSet (true | false) "false" > isUnicast (true | false) "false" This is incorrect XML and bites almost every newcomer to SGML (and now XML). For interoperability (see [59] and 3.3.1 Validity Constraint - Enumeration) you may not have two enumerated attribute values the same, even though they occur in different attributes. This is because it's illegal in SGML. (The reason is because in SGML you can arrange to minimise the typing by leaving out the attribute *names* ). So you have to rename them somehow: > isInDefaultEventSet (true | false) "false" > isUnicast (oui | non) "non" etc. You might try running your ATTLIST through one or more parsers and seeing what happens. It is billed as a 'validity constraint', so it would be interesting to see under what conditions the parsers trap it. P.
