Hi,
I've some problem to qualify a potential bug on the use of the xml:lang
attribute with Xalan 1.1, which uses xerces 1.1.2. Do I miss something or
do they miss something ?
Using the XML and Namespace recommendation,
"The namespace prefix, unless it is xml or xmlns, must have been declared
... The prefix xml is by definition bound to the namespace name
http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace."
I try :
<!DOCTYPE TEST [
<!ELEMENT TEST (#PCDATA)>
<!ATTLIST TEST
xml:lang NMTOKEN 'fr'
>
]>
<TEST xml:lang="fr">Some text in french</TEST>
The answer from Xerces is :
[Error] attribute xml:lang not found in element type TEST
Parser error: Attribute "xml:lang" must be declared for element type "TEST".
Even if I add a namespace declaration
<!DOCTYPE TEST [
<!ELEMENT TEST (#PCDATA)>
<!ATTLIST TEST
xml:lang NMTOKEN 'fr'
>
]>
<TEST xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" xml:lang="fr">Some
text in french</TEST>
It does not work.
The only thing that does work is well formed validation, with no doctype :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TEST xml:lang="fr">Some text in french</TEST>
Any idea ?
Regards,
Pierre
