Sean McGrath scripsit: > In XML DTDs, its a bit simpler but still pretty horrid: > <!ELEMENT foo (A|B|C...)*> Indeed, I am in process of developing a schema language in which the only allowed content models are of this form: model1 = elementa | elementb | elementc ... model2 = elementa | elementd | ... elementa = element elementa {model1 | ...}* elementb = element elementb {model2 | text | ...}* I.e., a named model is a choice between named elements, and a named element contains an optional choice group involving named models and possibly #PCDATA. What's the point? That will appear. -- And through this revolting graveyard of the universe the muffled, maddening beating of drums, and thin, monotonous whine of blasphemous flutes from inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond Time; the detestable pounding and piping whereunto dance slowly, awkwardly, and absurdly the gigantic tenebrous ultimate gods -- the blind, voiceless, mindless gargoyles whose soul is Nyarlathotep.
