Subject: Re: [docbook] XInclude problem


If all of these XIncludes are readable files whose root elements are section elements, then this document should validate.  I just tried it and could not duplicate your problem.  Can you describe how you are validating, including the versions of the tools you are using, as well as the error message you are getting?

Subject: [docbook] XInclude problem

Hi all,

I got a problem with XInclude. I have a document, root element is <section>:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE section PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.3//EN"
                         "http://www.docbook.org/xml/4.3/docbookx.dtd">
<section id="summary_rep"> <!-- this is the root -->
  <title>Summary Report</title>
  <para>bla bla bla.</para>

  <xi:include href="F_subscr_info.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
  <xi:include href="F_net_info.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
  <xi:include href="F_net_status.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
  <xi:include href="F_desktop_status.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
 
  <section id="summary_chrono">
        ...
  </section>
</section>

and this document validates and XInclude works perfectly. Note that included documents have also <section> as the root element.

But I also have a different document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE section PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.3//EN"
                         "http://www.docbook.org/xml/4.3/docbookx.dtd">
<section id="summary_rep"> <!-- this is the root -->
  <title>Summary Report</title>
  <para>bla bla bla.</para>

  <xi:include href="F_subscr_info.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
  <xi:include href="F_net_info.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
  <xi:include href="F_net_status.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
  <xi:include href="F_desktop_status.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
 
  <section id="summary_chrono">
        ...
  </section>
 <xi:include href="F_mail.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include>
</section>

I can't validate this document though the included one is similar to those in the above example. The error message says the last xinclude element is unknown and the content of the section must match... and here goes the list of allowed elements. Those xincludes at the top are resolved but that at the bottom isn't. What's wrong with this document and why xinludes aren't allowed in the place I chose.

Tks,

Zbyszek
