Hello, I work with DITA and FrameMaker8. I change the values of an existing attribute in the EDD. Example: color (red | blue). When I open a topic and assigned/allocate the attribute the value green, FrameMaker told me that the value is invalid. When I assigned/allocate the attribute the value red, FrameMaker take the value. When I save the topic, FrameMaker told me that the attribute isn�t conforming to the enumeration- or notation list. I don�t understand that. Why allowed FrameMaker the attribute in the topic? Why FrameMaker doesn�t tell me that the value is invalid? Is the enumeration- or notation list the values of the attribute? Where is the list FrameMaker mean? In the EDD? DTD? With kind regards, Nina

Hi Nina... It sounds like you should look in your EDD. An attribute definition can specify that the attribute's values are of type "Choice", in which case there will be a "Choices" element that specifies the valid values. You can modify that list of valid values, but if you do so, you'll alos need to update that same list in the DTD. Note that if you are using DITA, you can't just change these lists and remain compliant with the DITA specification. That's not really a big deal unless you expect to be sharing your files with other people. When someone else tries to open your file that contains an enumerated value that's not in the DITA spec, they will get an error. Cheers, ...scott
