Dear reader,
should I interpret the RMD='NONE' to mean:
1) parsing the DTD is optional; no need to parse it in order to process
the instance
2) the DTD must not be parsed, as
- the instance holds all information you need for a correct
interpretation
- it may affect the interpretation of the instance
- it may contain errors
- it may not exists
Section 2.10 of the aug. 7, 1997 draft I have before doesn't make this
clear to me.
Related to this: does 'parsing' in this sense mean building up an
auxiliary information structure (DOM-like), or just determining the
validity of (syntax of) the declaration sets? cf.:
<?XML VERSION="1.0" RMD="NONE">
<!DOCTYPE ABC [hello]>
<ABC>...</ABC>
Should this 'parse'?
A reference to a previous XML discussion or any other explanatory text
is welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Arjan Loeffen
