hi all, i'm currently in the process of writing the specification for an xml-based programming language using docbook, with the intent of producing both printable (fo/pdf) and online (html) output. however i've found no really good way to express the syntax/grammar of the xml elements that make up an important part of the language. ebnf is not well suited for the purpose and funcsynopsis obviously doesn't work at all. before switching to docbook i played around with the w3c xmlspec format, and came across something called ElementSyntax which perfectly captures element syntax (the result can be seen in the xslt and xml schema specifications, eg http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#element-syntax-summary). though i couldn't find any documentation or even an html stylesheet - and i wouldn't have a clue how to integrate it with an existing docbook document. has anyone else done this sort of thing? advice would be much appreciated! regards, /m XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
