parserInternals

parserInternals - internals routines and limits exported by the parser.

this module exports a number of internal parsing routines they are not really all intended for applications but can prove useful doing low level processing.

All attributes for which no declaration has been read should be treated by a non-validating parser as if declared CDATA.

[ VC: Attribute Value Type ] The attribute must have been declared; the value must be of the type declared for it. [25] Eq ::= S? '=' S?

A name must not appear more than once in an XML document as a value of this type; i.e., ID values must uniquely identify the elements which bear them. [ VC: One ID per Element Type ] No element type may have more than one ID attribute specified. [ VC: ID Attribute Default ] An ID attribute must have a declared default of #IMPLIED or #REQUIRED. [ VC: IDREF ] Values of type IDREF must match the Name production, and values of type IDREFS must match Names; each IDREF Name must match the value of an ID attribute on some element in the XML document; i.e. IDREF values must match the value of some ID attribute.
