Background

An XML DTD Element definition can have a number of sub-elements. These sub-elements are the valid sub-nodes that can be below the node. These sub-nodes are specified in brackets after the node. The following shows a complicated example from the RSS 0.91 DTD :

<!ELEMENT channel (title | description | link | language |
                   item+ | rating? | image? | textinput? |
                   copyright? | pubDate? | lastBuildDate? |
                   docs? | managingEditor? | webMaster? |
                   skipHours? | skipDays?)*>
