Yes, it is indeed DocBook 5; and it is strange. However I get very similar messages from Xerces-J and xmllint, so I think it must be my bug: Java_Course_Notes.xml:32916: element imagedata: validity error : Element imagedata content does not follow the DTD, expecting (info? , EMPTY), got mageobject><imagedata fileref='awt.gif' width='107px' depth='140px'></imagedata> [Error] Java_Course_Notes.xml:32916:201: The content of element type "imagedata" is incomplete, it must match "(info?,EMPTY)". One thing I considered based on the error message was whether it could possibly expect an element named EMPTY. But I can't see that in the DTD. I even tried that, but as expected it wasn't valid. Adding an empty info element didn't fix it either. I'm sure there must be some crucial mistake, but so far I can't find it. I guess the next step is to boil my 500 page document down to a simple test case. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@metalab.unc.edu Java I/O 2nd Edition Just Published! http://www.cafeaulait.org/books/javaio2/ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0596527500/ref=nosim/cafeaulaitA/
