valid valid⚓︎ indicates the intended validity of the example with respect to a schema.

Status Optional

Datatype teidata.enumerated

Legal values are:

true: the example is intended to be fully valid, assuming that its root element, or a provided root element, could have been used as a possible root element in the schema concerned. [Default]
feasible: the example could be transformed into a valid document by inserting any number of valid attributes and child elements anywhere within it; or it is valid against a version of the schema concerned in which the provision of character data, list, element, or attribute values has been made optional.
false: the example is not intended to be valid, and contains deliberate errors.

Note

In the source of the TEI Guidelines, this element declares itself and its content as belonging to the namespace http://www.tei-c.org/ns/Examples. This enables the content of the element to be validated independently against the TEI scheme. Where this element is used outside this context, a different namespace or none at all may be preferable. The content must however be a well-formed XML fragment or document: where this is not the case, the more general eg element should be used in preference.

Example

<egXML xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/Examples"><div>
<head>A slide about <gi>egXML</gi>
</head>
<list>
<item>
<gi>egXML</gi> can be used to give XML examples in the TEI
Examples namespace</item>
<item>Attributes values for <att>valid</att>:
<list rend="collapsed">
<item>
<val rend="green">true</val>: intended to be fully
valid</item>
<item>
<val rend="amber">feasible</val>: valid if missing nodes
provided</item>
<item>
<val rend="red">false</val>: not intended to be valid</item>
</list>
</item>
<item>The <att>rend</att> attribute can be
used for recording how parts of the example were rendered.</item>
