size

Hi,

Is it possible to specify the max size of an xml tag in the dtd ?
For example if I want to limit the size of a <name> tag to 50 is there a
method to do it in the dtd ?

regards

Do you mean the content of the name element? No, that's impossible with DTD.

Yes, the content of the element.
Thanks for the answer.

Have a look at XML Schema. It provides the functionality that you require,
above
and beyond that offered by DTD.
