text
Description
The text
pattern matches zero or more text
nodes. The fact that a text pattern matches more
than one text node has no effect when it is used in ordered-content
models (the data model used by RELAX NG for XML documents is similar
to the data model of XPath 1.0, and two text nodes
can’t be adjacent), but makes a difference when a
text pattern is used in
interleave. Adding a single
text pattern in an interleave
pattern allows any number of text nodes that can interleave before
and after each element. Note that the mixed
pattern is provided as a shortcut to define these content models.
Restrictions
No more than one text pattern can be included in
an interleave pattern.
Example
element author {
attribute id {text},
