boen_robot Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 The tutorial doesn't seem to mention that, but according to the definition of XML name from the XML specification, names beginning with the string "xml" are reserved for future elements the specification might standartize. Therefore, if you use this element, it's not valid. However, XML parsers accept it. It's a form of "forward compatability". They accept it, but don't interpret it as the specification might be defining in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XML elements cannot be empty please re-check this- as I remember site says yes/true XML element can be empty. Please confirm once again 16. Which is not a correct name for an XML element? Yes- if site says, than its right bcoz 1- <phone number> // No space 2- <xmldocument> // no ambiguity in name with standard words. 3- <7eleven> // not start with number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boen_robot Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I just took the Quiz (got 100% for 1:25 the first time btw... I don't remember my altime record, but it wasn't made the first time in a day anyway), and it seems that on question number 13 the correct answer is False, as in "No, the statement is not correct. XML elements can be empty". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
