Hi all;

      you could make the EDD rule as restrictive as you need for authoring purposes,
      then relax/adjust the DTD so that the XML parser stays happy.




FYI, I usually work from XML towards Frame, so sometimes find it convenient to relax the EDD not the DTD.

Either way, it's virtually impossible to keep the DTD and EDD in sync because many XML attributes (like table "cols") get mapped to Frame properties (like # of table columns). So I simply stopped worrying about it ... and keep close watch on my rules file.

Just a thought.
