Topic: Document Type Definition


  
  XHTML™ 1.1 - Module-based XHTML - Second Edition
This document defines an XHTML document type that is based upon the module framework and modules defined in XHTML Modularization [XHTMLMOD].
The purpose of this document type is to serve as the basis for future extended XHTML 'family' document types, and to provide a consistent, forward-looking document type cleanly separated from the deprecated, legacy functionality of HTML 4 [HTML4] that was brought forward into the XHTML 1.0 [XHTML1] document types.
This document is governed by the 24 January 2002 CPP as amended by the W3C Patent Policy Transition Procedure.

  Document Type Definition
A Document Type Definition (DTD for short) is a declaration in an SGML or XML document that specifies constraints on the structure of the document.
Defining a DTD specifies the syntax of an application of SGML or XML, which may be a widely-used standard such as XHTML or a local application.
DTDs are usually employed to determine the structure of an XML or SGML document.

 Document Type Definition: Facts and details from Encyclopedia Topic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
A document type declaration (doctype for short) associates a particular sgml or xml document with a document type definition (dtd)....
The declaration establishes that the document is an instance of the type defined by the referenced DTD.
The declarations in the internal subset are embedded in the Document Type Declaration in the document itself.

 5a. Creating a DTD
In addition to telling a validating parser which tags are valid, and in what arrangements, a DTD tells both validating and nonvalidating parsers where text is expected, which lets the parser determine whether the whitespace it sees is significant or ignorable.
In this case, the DTD definition is in a separate file from the XML document.
That means you have to reference it from the XML document, which makes the DTD file part of the external subset of the full Document Type Definition (DTD) for the XML file.

 Structure of the TEI Document Type Definition
There are DTD fragments for prose and mixed matter, verse and verse collections, drama, dictionaries, analysis and interpretation of text, text criticism, etc. A full list, including the files in which they are defined, and the rules determining their selection and combination, is given in section 3.2 Core, Base, and Additional Tag Sets.
The second type of modification needed is most conveniently performed after all the standard TEI parameter entities have been declared; this allows the element declarations provided by the user to make use of the parameter entities which define standard TEI content models and attribute definitions.
In the TEI DTDs, elements are not referred to directly by their generic identifiers; instead, the DTDs refer to parameter entities which expand to the standard generic identifiers.

 A document type definition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
A document type definition (DTD) is the collection of rules or declarations that define the content and structure of the document.
DTDs (definitions: rules) can be either internal (placed in the same file) or external (located in a separate file).
In a valid document, every element used in the document must be declared in the DTD.

 Document Type Definition - a Whatis.com definition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
A Document Type Definition (DTD) is a specific document defining and constraining definition or set of statements that follow the rules of the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) or of the Extensible Markup Language (XML), a subset of SGML.
A DTD is a specification that accompanies a document and identifies what the funny little codes (or markup) are that, in the case of a text document, separate paragraphs, identify topic headings, and so forth and how each is to be processed.
By mailing a DTD with a document, any location that has a DTD "reader" (or "SGML compiler") will be able to process the document and display or print it as intended.

 HTML Unleashed. SGML and the HTML DTD: Document Type Definition for HTML 4.0 - webreference.com
The entities used in DTD are called parameter entities, as opposed to general entities intended for use in HTML documents and not in DTD.
The use of a URL as a DTD identifier is rather unusual (it is probably explained by the fact that, at the time of this writing, HTML 4.0 DTD was still evolving).
As a result, the DTD is protected from the special characters, while in the document the references are expanded to the characters intended.

The RTML 1.1 DTD is an external DTD, existing in a separate file from the XML (RTML 1.1) files referencing it.
Note that the external document type definition here cannot be used as an internal document type definition.
Windows Internet Explorer 5 will not display the RTML 1.1 DTD directly, but will instead try to use it in conjunction with an RTML 1.1 file: the result of trying to view the RTML 1.1 DTD directly is a failure message.

DTD markup also defines the type of data that will occur in an XML element and the attributes that may be associated with those elements.
Because an external DTD may be referenced by many documents, it is a good repository for global types of definitions (definitions that apply to all documents).
A DTD may be internal to the XML document or external and referenced by the XML document.
