All occurrences of "element declaration" in this International Standard are changed to "element type declaration".
All occurrences of "element set" in this International Standard are changed to "element type set".
Replace 4.223 with:
4.223 owner identifier: The portion of a public identifier that identifies its owner.Note: The owner of a public identifier is not necessarily the owner of the object that it identifies.
Add the following normative annex K and informative annex L to ISO 8879.
This annex remedies defects revealed by the multiple adaptations of SGML for the World Wide Web (WWW), intranets, and extranets. The annex corrects errors, resolves ambiguities for which there is a clear resolution that does not cause existing conforming documents to become non-conforming, and provides a choice of alternative resolutions for other ambiguities. Although motivated by the World Wide Web, applicability of this annex extends to all uses of SGML.
This annex makes reference to groves and property sets, which are defined in the SGML Extended Facilities of the 2nd Edition of HyTime (ISO/IEC 10744) and also in DSSSL (ISO/IEC 10179).
The decision to conform to this annex is made for individual documents and is indicated in the SGML declaration, as described below (K.3.2). An SGML system need not support this annex in order to be a conforming SGML system.
This annex is organized as a set of replacement and new syntax productions and text, and is phrased in terms of modifications to be made to the body of this International Standard, though the numbers of the affected clauses are not necessarily cited. However, these modifications are applicable only when conforming to this annex.
An SGML parser that supports this annex shall be able to parse conforming SGML documents that do not claim conformance to it. The parsing of such documents must produce the same grove as would a conforming SGML parser that does not support this annex. Error reporting for such documents, however, is with respect to the standard as modified by this annex; errors with respect to the unmodified standard need not be reported.
Markup declarations that occur in a document type declaration subset.
The portion of a document type declaration subset located within the external subset entity.
The portion of a document type declaration subset that occurs between the dso and dsc of a document type declaration.
If the dso and dsc are omitted, the internal subset is empty (rather than non-existent).
The entity that is declared by the external identifier parameter of a document type declaration and referenced (implicitly) at the end of the internal subset.
A document instance whose associated document type declaration contains sufficient markup declarations to express all of the DTD properties required for the instance by the body of this International Standard, and that does not contain DTD data entities that modify those properties.
The document type declaration itself could be an implied declaration, as provided in clause K.4.9.
Note 1: An SGML declaration requires document instances to be fully-declared if it specifies IMPLYDEF ATTLIST NO and ELEMENT NO ENTITY NO NOTATION NO. A system should offer means, such as a parameter to the invocation of processing, to request validation of whether an instance is fully-declared even when the SGML declaration does not require it to be.
A document instance that is not fully-declared must be either a fully-tagged document instance or an amply-tagged document instance.
A document instance in which a start-tag with a generic identifier, and an end-tag, are present for every element, and the attribute name is present in every attribute specification in the start-tag.
Note 2: An SGML declaration requires document instances to be fully-tagged if it specifies DATATAG NO, RANK NO, OMITTAG NO, SHORTTAG STARTTAG EMPTY NO, and SHORTTAG ATTRIB OMITNAME NO. A system should offer means, such as a parameter to the invocation of processing, to request validation of whether an instance is fully-tagged even when the SGML declaration does not require it to be.
A document instance that conforms to such DTD properties as are required for it by the body of this International Standard and that are expressed in its associated document type declaration, either by markup declarations, DTD data entities, or both.
A document instance whose use of markup minimization does not require access to a document type declaration.
Note 3: An SGML declaration requires document instances to be amply-tagged, insofar as they use minimization, if it specifies DATATAG NO, RANK NO, SHORTTAG ATTRIB OMITNAME NO, and either IMPLYDEF ELEMENT NO or IMPLYDEF ELEMENT ANYOTHER. A system should offer means, such as a parameter to the invocation of processing, to request validation of whether an instance is amply-tagged even when the SGML declaration does not require it to be.
Note 4:
End-tags can be omitted in an amply-tagged document instance, even for element types that have been declared by default as provided for in K.3.7.
More precisely, an amply-tagged document instance can omit the end-tag for an element of an implicitly-declared type by satisfying any of the three conditions -- a), b), or c) -- specified in 7.3.1.2. However, condition c) can be satisfied only when "IMPLYDEF ELEMENT ANYOTHER" is specified in the SGML declaration and the element is followed by another element of the same type.
The following amply-tagged document instance illustrates these possibilities when "IMPLYDEF ELEMENT ANYOTHER" has been specified and there are no DTD declarations:
<chapter> <title>Chapter title</title> <list> <item>First item in the list <item>Second item in the list </list>The end-tag for the first item in the list can be omitted because of condition c): This element is followed by an element that is not allowed in its content--in particular, another item.
The end-tag for the second item in the list can be omitted because of condition b): This element is followed by the end-tag of another open element (the list).
The end-tag for the chapter can be omitted because of condition a): This element is followed by the end of the SGML document entity.
An element whose immediate content includes a child subelement of the same type.
Note 5: In the following fully-tagged text, the first section element is immediately recursive while the first list element is not.
<section> <title>The title</title> <section> <p>The data.</p> </section> </section> <list> <item>First outer list item</item> <item>Second outer list item, which contains an inner list. <list> <item>Inner list item</item> </list> </item> </list>
Note 6: A system should offer means, such as a parameter to the invocation of processing, to request validation that an instance contains no immediately recursive elements even when the DTD would permit them.
Note 7: An SGML system that supports unconstrained SGML documents must be able to parse DTD declarations and resolve both internal and external entity references. If it continues parsing (as a form of error-recovery) after failing to access a referenced entity, the results are unpredictable. Observing one or more of the entity constraints defined in this International Standard may cause a document to be more amenable to processing by a simpler SGML system, or in an environment (such as a network) where access to external entities may be slow or unreliable.
A document instance in which every element and marked section ends in the entity in which it begins.
Note 8: This constraint makes it possible, as a form of error-recovery, for parsing to continue in a fully-tagged document instance after a failure to access a referenced entity. The resulting grove will be the same for the parsed text, except for the tree addresses of younger siblings of the nodes in the inaccessible entity. The constraint also has implementation benefits for editors, "lazy" replacement of entity references, and sharing of grove portions when entities are reused.
An SGML document that has no entity references other than references to predefined data character entities.
Note 9: A reference-free document can be parsed by conforming SGML systems that cannot resolve entity references.
An SGML document that has no external entity references.
Note 10: An external-reference-free document could have attribute values that contain names of external entities or that otherwise might cause an application to access an external entity by means other than entity references.
Note 11: External-reference-free documents can be parsed by systems that cannot resolve external entity-references.
A general entity, associated with a character number in the syntax-reference character set, that is used to reference significant SGML characters as data.
Note 12: In order to allow delimiter escaping when parsing without respect to DTD declarations, there should be a predefined data character entity for the first character of each delimiter string that can be recognized in a mode where data can occur.
The characters assigned to the SEPCHAR, SPACE, RE, and RS functions.
An element of a type declared EMPTY, or that is forced to be EMPTY by an explicit content reference attribute.
A data notation that is capable of expressing DTD properties.
Note 13: This International Standard provides markup declarations as the means of expressing DTD properties. It also allows the use of DTD notations, but does not define any.
Note 14: A DTD notation can also be capable of expressing other information. For example, it could express constraints on a document's data content or structure that cannot be expressed by markup declarations but could be validated by an application. However, it is not a reportable markup error if the document fails to conform to such additional constraints.
Note 15: DTD notations are used in DTD data entities.
Classes and properties that are specifiable by markup declarations. They are defined by the following grove plan:
<!DOCTYPE grovplan PUBLIC "ISO/IEC 10744:1997//DTD Grove Plan//EN"> <grovplan propset=SGMLProp id=dtdprops> <title>DTD Properties Grove Plan</title> <desc> Classes and properties that are specifiable by DTD declarations. They are needed to parse and validate a document instance. </desc> <inclmod> prlgabs0 prlgabs1 dtgabs rankabs srabs subdcabs fpiabs arcabs fsiabs dafeabs gadcabs pelement </inclmod> <inclclas> sgmldoc doctpdcl </inclclas> <omitprop classes="sgmldoc"> appinfo epilog </omitprop> </grovplan>
An entity that is either the external subset entity, or that is declared with a parameter entity name.
An external parameter entity whose declaration includes a notation name.
Note 16: The notation name should be that of a DTD notation and the entity content should describe DTD properties.
[171] SGML declaration = "<!SGML", ps+, (SGML declaration reference | SGML declaration body), ps*, ">"
In order for SGML documents to be self-identifying, it is strongly recommended that all conforming SGML documents contain one of the forms of SGML declaration.
[171.1] SGML declaration reference = name, external identifier? where: "name" is a name in the reference concrete syntax. "external identifier" must reference an SGML declaration body. If omitted, the external identifier is "SYSTEM".
An external identifier, if it is a formal public identifier, should use "SD" as the public text class to identify an SGML declaration body, rather than one of those listed in 10.2.2.1.
Note 17: For example:
<!SGML HTML3.2 PUBLIC "+//IDN W3C.ORG//SD HTML Version 3.2//EN">
In 10.2.2.1 replace the phrase "The name must be" with "The name should be".
[171.2] SGML declaration body = minimum literal, ps+, document character set, ps+, capacity set, ps+, concrete syntax scope, ps+, concrete syntax, ps+, feature use, ps+, application-specific information, (ps+, added requirements)?
The minimum data of the minimum literal shall be one of the following:
The ENR suffix indicates that the document conforms to Annex J of this International Standard.
The WWW suffix indicates that the document conforms to Annex K (this annex) of this International Standard, which incorporates by reference the provisions of Annex J of this International Standard and supersedes any contradictory provisions elsewhere in this International Standard.
Certain parameters of the SGML declaration body are omissible in order to allow documents to declare conformance to this annex by a simple change to the minimum data. An omitted parameter has no effect on the document; that is, with respect to the subject of the omitted parameter, the document is the same as if it did not conform to this annex.
Note 18: Nevertheless, it is recommended that all parameters be specified.
[180] capacity set = "CAPACITY", ps+, (("PUBLIC", ps+, public identifier)| "NONE"| ("SGMLREF", (ps+, name, ps+, number)*))
NONE indicates that no capacities are specified.
Specifying NONE does not require a system to support capacities greater than those specified in its system declaration.
[182] concrete syntax = "SYNTAX", ps+, (public concrete syntax | (shunned character number identification, ps+, syntax-reference character set, ps+, function character identification, ps+, naming rules, ps+, delimiter set, ps+, reserved name use, ps+, quantity set, (ps+, predefined data character entities)?))
[194] quantity set = "QUANTITY", ps+, ("NONE"| ("SGMLREF", (ps+, name, ps+, number)*))
NONE indicates that no quantities are specified.
Specifying NONE does not require a system to support quantities greater than those specified in its system declaration.
[194.1] predefined data character entities = "ENTITIES", ps+, ("NONE"|(parameter literal, ps+, character number)+)
Each interpreted "parameter literal" must be a valid general entity name in the syntax being defined, and is associated with a character number in the syntax-reference character set. When the named entity is referenced, the replacement text is a numeric character reference to the corresponding character. Predefined data character entities are treated as though defined at the start of the internal subset of all documents in which the concrete syntax is used.
Note 19: For example:
ENTITIES "amp" 38 "lt" 60 "gt" 62 "quot" 34 "apos" 39
[196] markup minimization features = "MINIMIZE", ps+, "DATATAG", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "OMITTAG", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "RANK", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "SHORTTAG", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"| (start-tag options, ps+, end-tag options, ps+, attribute-options)), (ps+, empty element ending rules, ps+, implied default declarations)?
Note 20: Use of an enabled markup minimization feature may be affected by the operation of other provisions of this International Standard, including other markup minimization features.
[196.1] start-tag options = "STARTTAG", ps+, "EMPTY", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "UNCLOSED", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "NETENABL", ps+, ("NO"|"ALL"|"IMMEDNET") where: EMPTY YES enables empty start-tags. UNCLOSED YES enables unclosed start-tags. NETENABL ALL enables NET-enabling start-tags for beginning all elements that are permitted to have end-tags. An element so begun may, but need not, be ended with a null end-tag. NETENABL IMMEDNET ("immediate NET") enables NET-enabling start-tags for beginning elements that are permitted to have end-tags and that have no text between the start-tag and the end-tag, provided that each element so begun is ended with a null end-tag.
Note 21: An element with no text between its start-tag and end-tag is not necessarily a mandatorily empty element.
Note 22: A null end-tag can be used for a mandatorily empty element only when EMPTYNRM YES is specified (see K.3.6).
Note 23: For example, if the nestc is "/" and the net is ">", and "img" is either not a mandatorily empty element or is a mandatorily empty element and EMPTYNRM YES is specified, then:
<img/>can be used as an alternative to
<img></img>
[196.2] end-tag options = "ENDTAG", ps+, "EMPTY", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "UNCLOSED", ps+, ("NO"|"YES") where: EMPTY YES enables empty end-tags. UNCLOSED YES enables unclosed end-tags.
[196.3] attribute options = "ATTRIB", ps+, "DEFAULT", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "OMITNAME", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "VALUE", ps+, ("NO"|"YES") where: DEFAULT YES enables attribute value defaulting (7.9.1.1). OMITNAME YES enables attribute names and vi to be omitted for unique NMTOKEN values (7.9.1.2). VALUE YES enables some attribute values to be specified without delimiters, rather than as literals (7.9.3.1).
Note 24: DEFAULT NO does not bar default values from attribute definition list declarations.
[196.4] empty element ending rules = "EMPTYNRM", ps+, ("NO"|"YES") where: EMPTYNRM YES applies normal rules for the presence of end-tags, including markup minimization rules, to elements of a type declared EMPTY, or that are forced to be EMPTY by an explicit content reference attribute (7.3.).
Note 25: Specifying EMPTYNRM YES applies to mandatorily empty elements the same rules about the presence of end-tags that apply to other kinds of elements.
[196.5] implied default declarations = "IMPLYDEF", ps+, "ATTLIST", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "DOCTYPE", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "ELEMENT", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"|"ANYOTHER"), ps+, "ENTITY", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), ps+, "NOTATION", ps+, ("NO"|"YES") where: DOCTYPE YES means that an implied document type declaration includes an implied declaration for an external subset entity (see K.4.9); and YES for the other parameters allows information of the specified type to be used in a fully-tagged or amply-tagged document instance without an explicit declaration. Instead, a declaration is implied, as follows: ATTLIST YES means an undeclared attribute is declared as: CDATA #IMPLIED ELEMENT YES means an undeclared element type is declared as: - O ANY ELEMENT ANYOTHER means an undeclared element type is declared as: - O ANY but immediately recursive elements of that type are prohibited. ENTITY YES means an undeclared general entity is declared as: SYSTEM NOTATION YES means an undeclared notation is declared as: SYSTEM
Note 26: IMPLYDEF DOCTYPE YES implies only a declaration for an external subset entity. Other declarations may be implied if needed, and if permitted by the applicable IMPLYDEF parameters.
When IMPLYDEF ELEMENT ANYOTHER and OMITTAG YES are specified, the end-tag of an element of an undeclared type can be omitted from an amply-tagged instance when the element is followed by the start of an element of the same type.
When IMPLYDEF ENTITY YES is specified, #DEFAULT cannot be specified as a general entity name.
Implicitly declared definitions occur in the grove in the order in which it is necessary to imply their declarations. No attribute assignment node is created for an attribute unless the attribute is specified.
Note 27: An implied declaration is not necessarily the same as an explicit declaration for the same object that was ignored during parsing (Note 38). Nor does it constrain any explicit declaration that might be created for that object as a result of processing (for example, when generating an explicit DTD for a document that has none).
[198] other features = "OTHER", ps+, "CONCUR", ps+, ("NO"|("YES", ps+, number)), ps+, "SUBDOC", ps+, ("NO"|("YES", ps+, number)), ps+, "FORMAL", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"), (urn feature, keeprsre feature, validity feature, entities feature)?
[198.1] urn feature = ps+, "URN", ps+, ("NO"|"YES") where: URN YES means public identifiers are interpreted according to the applicable Internet Engineering Task Force RFC2141 governing Universal Resource Names.
If both URN and FORMAL are YES, public identifiers are interpreted either as formal public identifiers or as URNs.
[198.2] keeprsre feature = ps+, "KEEPRSRE", ps+, ("YES"|"NO") where: KEEPRSRE YES means clause 7.6.1 does not apply.
If KEEPRSRE YES is specified, all white space in mixed content is included in the grove as datachar nodes and all white space in element content is included in the grove as s separator nodes.
Note 28: This option does not affect delimited strings, such as attribute value literals, which have their own rules for normalizing white space (and which, in any case, do not occur in content).
[198.3] validity feature = ps+, "VALIDITY", ps+, ("NOASSERT"|"TYPE") where: NOASSERT makes no validity assertion. TYPE asserts that document instances are type-valid. If the parameter is omitted, TYPE is assumed. [198.4] entities feature = ps+, "ENTITIES", ps+, ("NOASSERT"| ("REF", ps+, ("NONE"|"INTERNAL"|"ANY"), ps+, "INTEGRAL", ps+, ("NO"|"YES"))) where: NOASSERT makes no validity assertion. REF asserts the document either has unconstrained entity references (ANY), is external-reference-free (INTERNAL), or is reference-free (NONE). INTEGRAL YES asserts document instances are integrally-stored. If the parameter is omitted, NOASSERT is assumed.
It is a reportable markup error if a document is less constrained than is asserted.
Note 29: For example, if an otherwise conforming document incorrectly asserts that it is integrally-stored, the document is non-conforming. Had the assertion not been made, the document would have been conforming.
Note 30: A system should offer means, such as a parameter to the invocation of processing, to check whether a particular VALIDITY or ENTITIES assertion could correctly be made for a document, even when the SGML declaration does not make that assertion.
Note 31: To satisfy the classical requirement for SGML conformance, a document instance must be fully-declared as well as type-valid.
[199.1] added requirements = "SEEALSO", ps+, ("NONE"| (ps+, public identifier)+)
The public identifiers identify additional requirements for the document, including requirements unrelated to the SGML language. These requirements are in addition to, and must not contradict, the requirements of this International Standard. Failure to satisfy the added requirements is not a reportable markup error.
Note 32: For example, this parameter could be used by an SGML system to signal the existence of requirements for specific entity constraint assertions, formatting conventions for specified element types, or data restrictions, such as that the number of cells in a table row does not exceed the number specified in some attribute. It is not a reportable markup error if the added required entity assertions are not present in the SGML declaration; if they are present, it is a reportable markup error if the document fails to satisfy them, as that would have been the case even in the absence of the added requirements.
It is not an error if the system is unable to access an object named by the public identifiers.
Note 33: See Annex L "Added Requirements for XML" for an example.
[62] character reference = named character reference | numeric character reference | hex character reference [62.1] named character reference = cro, function name, reference end [62.2] numeric character reference = cro, character number, reference end [62.3] hex character reference = hcro, hexdigit+, reference end
A hexdigit is a digit or lowercase a-f or uppercase A-F. The length of the hex digit string cannot exceed NAMELEN.
Name String Number Mode Constraint Description HCRO (none) (none) CON LIT HEX Hex character reference open NESTC (NET) (none) TAG NET-enabling start-tag close NET / 47 CON ELEM Null end-tag
HEX constraint: must be followed by a hexdigit.
If no assignment is made to NESTC, the NET is used.
[18] net-enabling start-tag = stago, generic identifier specification, attribute specification list, s*, nestc
[141] attribute definition list declaration = mdo, "ATTLIST", ps+, ((associated element type | (rni, ("IMPLICIT"|"ALL")))| (rni, "NOTATION", ps+, (associated notation name | (rni, ("IMPLICIT"|"ALL"))))), ps+, attribute definition list, ps*, mdc where the keywords indicate the objects associated with the attributes: NOTATION indicates that the associated objects are notations. IMPLICIT means all the implicitly declared element types or notations and those whose DTD properties are expressed in DTD data entities. ALL means all element types or notations. [149.1] associated notation name = (notation name | name group)
IMPLICIT and ALL are the equivalent of name groups.
The same element type or notation may be the associated object in multiple ATTLIST declarations. An attempt to redefine an attribute that was previously defined for an associated object is not an error; the earliest definition prevails (just as for entity declarations).
However, a definition associated with ALL can be overridden by subsequent attribute declarations for specific element types or notations (including declarations specified with IMPLICIT), except when the attribute has already been specified. It is therefore an error to specify a data attribute that was declared with ALL and then to attempt to redeclare that attribute.
[142] attribute definition list = (attribute definition, (ps+, attribute definition)*)?
[145] declared value = "CDATA"|"ENTITY"|"ENTITIES"|"ID"|"IDREF"|"IDREFS"|"NAME"|"NAMES"| "NMTOKEN"|"NMTOKENS"|"NUMBER"|"NUMBERS"|"NUTOKEN"|"NUTOKENS"| notation|name token group|data specification
Replace the penultimate paragraph of 11.3.3 with:
A token can occur more than once in an attribute definition list provided that each occurrence of the token is in the name token group or name group of a different attribute definition. In an attribute specification where the value is such a duplicated token, omitted attribute name minimization cannot be used.
[145.1] data specification = "DATA", ps+, notation name, data attribute specification? where: "notation name" identifies the data content notation of the attribute's value "data attribute specification" specifies the corresponding data attributes
The value of an attribute whose declared value is "data specification" is character data.
Note 34: An application may wish to verify that the value of a data specification attribute is meaningful in light of the specified notation name and data attributes, but it is not a reportable markup error if this is not the case.
[111] document type name = (generic identifier | (rni, "IMPLIED")) where: IMPLIED means the document element can have any valid element type name.
It is a reportable markup error if IMPLIED is specified and the start-tag of the document element is omitted or does not contain a generic identifier.
IMPLIED cannot be specified if LINK EXPLICIT YES or CONCUR YES are specified in the SGML declaration.
[80] owner identifier = ISO owner identifier | registered owner identifier | unregistered owner identifier | internet domain name owner identifier [83.1] internet domain name owner identifier = "+//IDN ", minimum data where the minimum data must begin with an Internet domain name.
Note 35: A string like "IDN domain.name" or "IDN domain.name/sub-domain/sub-domain" is treated as an ISO/IEC 9070 "registered owner prefix". Any sub-domains of a domain could also be identified using owner name components. For example, the Internet domain named "someisp.net" and its sub-domains in the URL "http://www.someisp.net/users/mtb" could occur in an FPI as:
+//IDN someisp.net::www::users::mtbor as:
+//IDN www.someisp.net/users/mtb
Note 36: When constructing a public text owner identifier using an Internet domain name, users may wish to consider the name's potential lifespan and the lifespans of the objects to be identified.
Semicolon, exclamation point, asterisk, number sign, commercial at sign, dollar sign, underscore, and percent sign are members of the abstract character class "special", which is usable in minimum data.
A mandatorily empty element cannot contain any text, including white space, other markup, or included subelements. Markup minimization can be applied to such elements.
A referenced parameter entity must consist of zero or more of the consecutive complete tokens that follow the ts in which the reference occurs in the same group (i.e., at the same nesting level), together with any intervening ts separators and connectors, and optionally with surrounding separators and connectors. The entity must end within the same group.
An Ee can occur in a ts only if the reference to the entity the Ee terminates occurs in the same group (i.e., at the same nesting level).
[113] entity set = (entity declaration | notation declaration | attribute definition list declaration | ds)* where: The keyword "NOTATION" must be specified in each attribute definition list declaration.
[3] SGML subdocument entity = (s*, SGML declaration)?, prolog, document instance set, Ee
If LINK EXPLICIT NO and CONCUR NO are specified in the SGML declaration and either or both of IMPLYDEF DOCTYPE YES or IMPLYDEF ELEMENT YES are specified, and if the document instance is either fully-tagged or amply-tagged, the SGML document entity need not contain a prolog. In such cases, a prolog will be implied consisting solely of a single implied document type declaration, as follows:
<!DOCTYPE #IMPLIED SYSTEM>
<!DOCTYPE #IMPLIED>
Note 37: When both the document type name and the external subset entity are implied in a document type declaration, a system may be able to locate an appropriate external subset by considering the storage identifier of the SGML document entity and/or the generic identifier of the document element.
If permitted by the implied default declarations parameter of the SGML declaration, a document type declaration (whether explicit or implied) may lack declarations for element types, attributes, notations, and/or general entities. Declarations are implied for them as provided in K.3.7.
Note 38: If some or all of an instance's associated document type declaration is unavailable or for other reasons is ignored during parsing, then:
To the extent that an SGML system can recognize properties expressed by DTD notations, it shall treat them identically to DTD properties that are expressed by markup declarations.
It is a reportable markup error if a DTD data entity is referenced and its representation of required DTD properties is not understood by the system and it is not permissible to imply default declarations for them.
Note 39: Therefore, when implied default declarations are permitted, the use of a DTD notation that cannot be understood has the same effect as omitting the equivalent markup declarations.
An entity declaration for an external parameter entity can include an entity type that specifies the name of a data notation.
Production 110 is replaced with:
[110] document type declaration = mdo, "DOCTYPE", ps+, document type name, (ps+, external identifier, (ps+, ("CDATA"|"NDATA"|"SDATA"), ps+, notation name)?)?, (ps+, dso, document type declaration subset, dsc)?, ps*, mdcThe notation name must be declared within the internal subset of the document type declaration.
Note 40: If data attributes are to be specified for a DTD data entity, the entity must be declared by an entity declaration; that is, the entity cannot be the external subset entity.
[129] primitive content token = ( rni , ("PCDATA" | "ALL" | "IMPLICIT")) | element token | data tag group where: ALL and IMPLICIT have the same meaning as in K.4.4 and are equivalent to optional repeatable OR groups.
#ALL and #IMPLICIT are allowed in the name groups in [139] and [140]. They have the same meaning as in K.4.4.
This annex illustrates the relationship of SGML declarations to "added requirements" by means of a real-world example, XML. It is not intended as a specification for XML.
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is the core subset of SGML functionality developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) for exchanging SGML documents over the World Wide Web. The current specification for XML can be found at the W3C web site at "http://www.w3.org/TR/" under the title "Extensible Markup Language (XML)".
The XML specification covers the following aspects of an SGML application and system:
XML distinguishes two classes of conforming documents:
A full-SGML validating parser cannot validate documents for conformance to XML unless it is specially modified to support XML. That is because some of XML's language restrictions cannot be expressed in the SGML declaration. Those restrictions can be found in http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-sgml-xml.
XML documents implicitly contain the following SGML declaration, which does not require the document to be type-valid. However, type-validity is asserted when a "validating processor" is invoked.
