RE: [xliff-comment] Schema issues with extensible attributes

Asgeir,

 

The ‘mixed’ value, as you
probably know, means that text is allowed within the ‘tool’ tags. The
spec reads, 

“The <tool>
element describes the tool that has been used to execute a given task in the
document. …

Contents:

Zero,
one or more non-XLIFF elements.”

It doesn’t explicitly state that
text is allowed, but since the intent is to allow proprietary content, I believe
most people will assume that text is allowed.

 

Thank you again for your comments.

 

Regards,

Schema issues with extensible attributes

 

Hi all,

I'm taking up a little too much bandwidth on this list at the moment, but this
should be my last one:

                        <xsd:any

is now

<xsd:element name="tool">

        <xsd:complexType

                <xsd:sequence>

                        <xsd:any

Only one of the validators (Xerces or XSV) complained about the (potential)

ambiguity.

All good, but why is there a mixed='true' attribute in the tool element? If
this is correct, it would be nice to have this added this to the description of
the element in the specification. 

cheers,
