RE: [docbook] RE: quote inside code. WAS emphasis inside command isillegal?

["Rowland, Larry" <larry.rowland@hp.com>]

Another feature in oXygen is the Model pane that displays the content model for an element based on the cursor being inside the element.  It is a little faster than  the opening triangular brace and doesn't insert content into the file.  Many other editors have similar features.

I don't know of such a query tool, but you can use an RNG schema-aware XML editor to 
see what child elements are available for a given parent.  I just open a DocBook 5.0 
document with Oxygen, configured to associate the DocBook namespace with the DocBook 
5.0 RNG schema.  When inside an element, when I type "<" it prompts me for a child 
element, listing only those that are valid in that context.  Other XML editors have a 
similar feature.

I'll add an item to the next DocBook Technical Committee agenda to discuss maintaining 
accessible reference documentation for each version.

Missed that before, I see that in the preface now, thanks.
I should have used the docs that came with the distribution. Now that I look there 
though I don't see the reference.

Where can I find the frozen doc that matches the distribution for 5.0?

Or failing that, is there a tool to query the schema for legal child elements given a 
parent?
something like this:
somefunc('varname','inlineequation')# returns False
somefunc('varname','inlinemediaobject')# returns True

thanks,
--Tim
