> Is the following correct? > <!ELEMENT TYPE_OF_LOSS_CODE EMPTY> > <!ATTLIST TYPE_OF_LOSS_CODE > It is correct, but your second line is basically saying "here comes some attribute definitions for the TYPE_OF_LOSS_CODE element type," and then it doesn't have any. This is legal (see production 52 of the XML spec), and would typically be used as a placeholder for where you're going to put the attribute definitions, but wouldn't serve much purpose that I know of in a production system.
