which is the correct SGML declaration for XML?
I found three:
1a) <!SGML -- SGML Declaration for XML --
"ISO 8879:1986 (ENR)"
1b) <!SGML -- SGML Declaration for XML --
"ISO 8879:1986 (WWW)"
both in http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-sgml-xml-971215
Comparison of SGML and XML
and
2) <!SGML -- SGML Declaration for XML --
"ISO 8879:1986 (WWW)"
in http://www.sgmlsource.com/8879rev/n1955.htm
ISO 8879 TC2
I understand the difference between (1a) and (1b), but there is a difference
between (1b) and (2):
(2):
NAMESTRT
95 170 ...
NAMECHAR
45 46 58 ...
(1b):
NAMESTRT
58 95 ...
NAMECHAR
45-46 183 ...
As far as I know (1b) is correct, since XML 1.0 reads:
[5] Name ::= (Letter | '_' | ':') (NameChar)*
which means, a Name may start (NAMESTRT) with a ':'
But I'm not sure...
Could someone please confirm or correct my assumption.
Thanks in advance for an answer!
Bye,
Stefan.
