DTD / xmerl_scan:file help !!!!! {invalid_nmtoken,"*) #RE"

[Sanjaya Vitharana]

got your point.

changing it to
<!ATTLIST key
       no (1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|z|r|c|astric) #REQUIRED>
will sort the problem.

Since the mobile phone has the * (astric) key, it is interesting to know how
to express the constraint as we like.

Such as,
<!ATTLIST key
       no (1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|z|r|c|*) #REQUIRED>

Could you please guide me to some reference materials or some better
examples to pick this quickly.

Further more,

is it not possile to define a datatype like below ???

<!ATTLIST fax
      no MyType #IMPLIED>

MyType::= #x9 | #xA | #xD

or some other way ..... ( this is NOT Working too )

Or using <!ENTITY like ...

<!ENTITY aa "&#xD;&#xA;">
<!ENTITY ss     "*">

Hope it will possible.

As I never did it before, I don't know how this can be done.

Can anybody help me ....!!!!
