[FormMagick-devel] DTD changes

[Kirrily 'S. R. <sk...@in...>]

I just modified the FM DTD to reflect how I think things should be for
the next version.  Major changes include:

- titles, labels and descriptions (i.e. human-readable stuff) on all
  elements are now sub-elements rather than attributes

- added a "fragment" element, alongside "field".  This is to allow
  people to just chuck in a fragment of HTML or the results of some Perl
  code or whatever, if they need to.

I'm far from convinced that the DTD is correct, but it should do for
now.

[FormMagick-devel] DTD changes

[Kirrily 'S. R. <sk...@in...>]

I'm about to dive in and change that DTD stuff I've been threatening to
do for ages.  Specifically:

	<FIELD NAME="foo" DESCRIPTION="bar"/>

will become:

	<FIELD ...>
		<NAME>foo</NAME>
		<DESCRIPTION>bar</DESCRIPTION>
	</FIELD>

(and ditto for other elements with attributes that give readable
output).

Expect mess.  I'll try to leave things in a vaguely-working order, but
*shrug* it could be weird for a few days.  I'll commit as regularly as I
can, so run an update before you look at anything.
