What am I doing wrong? ("Debug" XML code help please.)

[Asfand Yar Qazi]

Hi,

xmllint --valid gives error output on some code (included below:)

file "Shotgun_Robot. dtd" (don't ask)

<!ELEMENT Image (#PCDATA) > <!-- #PCDATA == image path -->

<!-- x/y values default to 0, w/h values default to image w/h-->
<!ATTLIST Image
srcrect_x CDATA #IMPLIED
srcrect_y CDATA #IMPLIED
srcrect_w CDATA #IMPLIED
srcrect_h CDATA #IMPLIED

<!-- If element content is empty, the Drawable name points to an
already created Drawable. If it is not empty, it defines a
Drawable of the name and type given. -->
<!ELEMENT Drawable (EMPTY|Image|Mu p)
<!ATTLIST Drawable
name CDATA #REQUIRED

<!ELEMENT Mup (Drawable)* >
file "image_test.xml "

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!DOCTYPE root SYSTEM "Shotgun_Robot. dtd" [
<!ELEMENT root ANY>
]>

<root>

<Drawable name="mup1">
<Mup>
<Drawable name="t43a">
<Image>images/sprites/tank_ClassicTra ckT43A.png</Image>
</Drawable>
<Drawable name="t43a" />
<Drawable name="mup1" />
</Mup>
</Drawable>

</root>
error output:

image_test.xml: 14: validity error: Element Drawable content does not

</Drawable>

</Drawable>

</root>

This says that Drawable takes one of three elements as content:
EMPTY, Image, or Mup. What you want is

<!ELEMENT Drawable (Image|Mup)?

This says that the content is zero or one of either Image or Mup.
