Anagha,
If you're using DocBook 5.0, there are two resources you
should
look at first:
- The draft DocBook 5.0 Definitive Guide:
The definitive guide will give you the details of
DocBook's
syntax. Norm Walsh, who authors the guide has just
updated
it to make it easier to read. The section called
"Understanding
Content Models" describes how to read the detailed
syntax.
You can find that description here:
The How-to will give you information about how DocBook
5.0
has changed, and also give you suggestions on how best
to
use DocBook. These two should give you a good
start.
Dick
Thank you! Dick. You are right, I was trying to insert
"example" tag before "info" & after "section" Per your suggestions, I
included it before section & it worked! Any idea, where can I find
documentation about -- what elements are allowed under a given parent and what
should be the sequence of the children elements? Appreciate your replies. -

Anagha,
The most likely possibility is that you've got <example>
either before the <title> or <info> elements, or after
one of the "section" elements (<section>, <sect1>, etc.)
For example,
<article ...>
<title>the title</title>
<example>....</example>
<section>......</section>
</article>
would be ok, but:
<article ...>
<title>the title</title>
<section>......</section>
<example>....</example>
</article>
is invalid.
If that's not the problem, then if you could post the
shortest example you have that fails, that would help
diagnose the problem.

Subject: [docbook-apps] DB 5 -- Element "example" not allowed
inside element "article" ?
Hi All,
I am trying to insert an element "example" inside "article";
however, I
get the following error message in the XML editor (I am using
oXygen XML
editor):
element "example" from namespace "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" not
allowed in this context
However, per information on:
http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html
/example.html
I see "example" has a parent "article"
Please advise.
Thank you,
Anagha
PS: I am using DocBook 5, the article element appears as: <article
xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" version="5.0"> in my xml file.
