Pretend I have a DTD that includes this:
<!ELEMENT set EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST set
id CDATA #REQUIRED
>
I then have XML documents that include stuff like this:
<set id='foo'/>
All good and well so far. But now I want to limit the values that
set's id can take. I know how to enumerate the legal values using
EnumeratedType like this:
<!ELEMENT set EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST set
id (One|Two|Three) #REQUIRED
>
But that's not what I want. In my world, "id" is one or more characters
from this set: [-a-zA-Z0-9]. It's easy enough to do use CDATA and verify
id manually after validating the DTD. But my question is, can do this
in the DTD? That'd sure be convenient. Unfortunately I dont have the
brain pan to figure this out from the spec...
