MORE INFORMATION

Page 64: Corrections To Note

On page 64, the Note section explains portions of the code used on pages 67 and 69. However, this code requires corrections, as listed below (see Pages 67 and 69: Correction to Code). Therefore, the Note should be revised to correspond with the code corrections.

Change:
"Also notice the use of ' as a place holder for a single quotation mark and the use of the parentheses to group the collection of choices."

To:
"Also notice the use of underscores as a place holder for white spaces and the use of the parentheses to group the collection of choices."

Pages 67 and 69: Correction To Code

The Revised DTD code on pages 66-67 will produce an error when run through XML Authority. The offending text is "'".

The DTD is attempting to define an attribute named "font" with "New Roman Times" as one of the enumerated values. However, the attribute values cannot contain white spaces and the & symbol is not allowed. Using an underscore in the attribute value will solve the problem.

On page 67, change:

face  (' Times New Roman ' | Arial) #REQUIRED
                


To:

face  (Times_New_Roman | Arial) #REQUIRED
                


Please note this code error is repeated on page 69.

Page 116: Correction to Code

On page 116, the code at the bottom should be changed to include </customer> after the first customer element.

Change:

<message>
    <date>01-01-2001</date>
    <customer customerID="c1" customerName="John" />
        <order orderID="o100"/>
    <customer customerID="c2" customerName="William">
        <order orderID='o101'/>
    </customer>
</message>
                


To:

<message>
    <date>01-01-2001</date>
    <customer customerID="c1" customerName="John">
        <order orderID="o100"/>
    </customer>
    <customer customerID="c2" customerName="William">
        <order orderID='o101'/>
    </customer>
</message>
