how to enable TEI names and dates Tagset?

Post by **muewi** » Sun Oct 15, 2006 2:07 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to use the additional tag set for names and dates in TEI, so I tried inserting this into the DOCTYPE-Declaration:

Code: Select all

<!ENTITY % TEI.namesdates 'INCLUDE'>

However, when I try to use a tag from this tagset like <persName>, I get an error message, that this element is not declared.

What am I doing wrong?

Best wishes,
Frank

Hi Frank,

I started with a New from templates action in oXygen and selected TEI P4. This got me

Code: Select all


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE TEI.2 PUBLIC "-//TEI P4//DTD Main Document Type//EN" "http://www.tei-c.org/Guidelines/DTD/tei2.dtd" [

<!ENTITY % TEI.prose 'INCLUDE'>

<!ENTITY % TEI.linking 'INCLUDE'>

<!ENTITY % TEI.figures 'INCLUDE'>

<!ENTITY % TEI.analysis 'INCLUDE'>

<!ENTITY % TEI.XML 'INCLUDE'>

<!ENTITY % ISOlat1 SYSTEM 'http://www.tei-c.org/Entity_Sets/Unicode/iso-lat1.ent'>

%ISOlat1;

<!ENTITY % ISOlat2 SYSTEM 'http://www.tei-c.org/Entity_Sets/Unicode/iso-lat2.ent'>

%ISOlat2;

<!ENTITY % ISOnum SYSTEM 'http://www.tei-c.org/Entity_Sets/Unicode/iso-num.ent'>

%ISOnum;

<!ENTITY % ISOpub SYSTEM 'http://www.tei-c.org/Entity_Sets/Unicode/iso-pub.ent'>

%ISOpub;

]>



<TEI.2>

    <teiHeader>

        <fileDesc>

            <titleStmt>

                <title></title>

            </titleStmt>

            <publicationStmt>

                <!-- one of (address authority availability date distributor idno p pubPlace publisher) -->

                <p>Publication statement goes here.</p>

            </publicationStmt>

            <sourceDesc>

                <!-- one of (bibl biblFull biblStruct listBibl p recordingStmt scriptStmt) -->

                <p>Source description goes here.</p>

            </sourceDesc>

        </fileDesc>

    </teiHeader>

    <text>

        <body>

            <p>A paragraph goes here.</p>

        </body>

    </text>

</TEI.2>

Then I added an author entry and a persName inside the titleStmt and this gave me the following document:

Code: Select all

which oXygen marked as invalid with the following message 'Element type "persName" must be declared.'
Adding <!ENTITY % TEI.names.dates 'INCLUDE'>

Code: Select all

makes the document valid.

Hope that helps,
