TTML XSD vallidation and extension problem

State:

CLOSED

Product:

TTML 1.0

Raised by:

Philippe Le Hégaret

Opened on:

2012-01-30

Description:

TTML allows any foreign namespace attribute on the elements, such as
http://www.w3.org/TR/ttaf1-dfxp/#document-structure-vocabulary-tt

However, the schema is constructed to reject all such attributes.

For example, the following XML would be rejected, even though it is clearly permitted by the Recommendation:
<p cff:forcedDisplayMode=”true”>translated from Klingon</p>

As a result, those working on derived schemas from TTML that add attributes to the existing elements are forced to do unusual things in their schemas to work around this and/or create schemas from scratch. And such instance documents cannot be validated against TTML since they are (wrongly) rejected.

The obvious way to correct this would be to add anyAttribute=”##other” to the element definitions, however, this would then enable false validations of non-default TT namespace elements (e.g. ttm: ), which is undesirable.
