Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (OFFICE-2207) Whitespaceprocessing [N 1309]
[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2207?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=19396#action_19396 ] Dennis Hamilton commented on OFFICE-2207: ----------------------------------------- After researching this further, I think we should apply the change to this in ODF 1.2 back to ODF 1.0 (and eventually 1.1). See OFFICE-1211 and the new comments on how to simplifiy this. The advantage of using the ODF 1.2 version is that it eliminates all of the incorrect and/or misleading statements here. There is also a new Public Comment about this Errata item, at OFFICE-2575. The question about DTDs and MathML in the original Alex Brown comment needs to be dealt with elsewhere. There remains a quarrel about whether element content or element-only content are meaningful here in the absence of a DTD. But the RNG Grammar elements that do not have character data (not mixed content) and ones that do. It may be just a matter of using our terms carefully. > Whitespace processing [N 1309] > ------------------------------ > > Key: OFFICE-2207 > URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2207 > Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC > Issue Type: Bug > Components: General > Affects Versions: ODF 1.0, ODF 1.0 (second edition) > Reporter: Robert Weir > Assignee: Svante Schubert > Fix For: ODF 1.0 Errata CD 5 > > > Submitter ID > GB-26300-34 > Nature of defect > Technical > Document > ISO/IEC 26300:2006 > Clause > 1.6 > Page > 34 > Description of issue > It is stated that "In conformance with the W3C XML specification [XML1.0], optional white-space characters that are contained in elements that have element content (in other words that must contain elements only but not text) are ignored". > * It is not clear what "optional white-space characters" are (the term is not defined in XML 1.0), or how the described behaviour conforms to XML 1.0. > * Does the phrase "elements that have element content" mean elements that have only element content? This cannot make sense, as whitespace is itself text content. > * Consider the markup <text:p><text:span>Hello</text:span> <text:span>world</text:span></text:p>. If processed according to the text above, the space between the words here would be ignored, yet no known ODF processor actually respects this provision. > Proposal > Reform the text to answer the above queries and modify the stated processing behaviour to accord with the existing corpus of documents and processors. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
