Introduction
The FAQs in this document pertain to using the XMLmind XML Editor (XXE) to edit DocBook XML. If you are new to XXE, you may wish to [ http://help.unc.edu/?id=5909 ] start from the beginning to gain an understanding of the basics.
FAQs
- Q: Why do I get an error when I try to open my XML document?
- Q: Why won't the Editing Pane let me insert the element I want?
- Q: Why doesn't the spell check work?
XXE cannot open invalid XML. You will need to first fix the errors in a text editor such as jEdit. While this may seem like an inconvienience, keep in mind that XXE tries very hard to make you write valid XML. If you have written your document from the start using XXE it should almost always be valid.
Here is where an understanding of the structure of DocBook becomes important. For example, while a
para tag can be inserted
within
a
section tag, it cannot be inserted
after
a
section tag. If the Editing Pane isn't allowing you to insert a specific element, first make sure that you have highlighted the right node (or have positioned the cursor properly within the text for inline elements). Next, make sure you are clicking the right insert button. If the
button doesn't give you the option you are looking for, try clicking the
button.
