Also check VC: Standalone Document Declaration in P32, and update ctxt->valid accordingly

Parameters

  value | the attribute value

Returns
  a new normalized string if normalization is needed, NULL otherwise. The caller must free the returned value.

|  | const xmlChar ** | names,
|  | int | max )

This function returns the list of authorized children to insert within an existing tree while respecting the validity constraints forced by the Dtd.

The insertion point is defined using prev and next in the following ways: to insert before 'node': xmlValidGetValidElements(node->prev, node, ... to insert next 'node': xmlValidGetValidElements(node, node->next, ... to replace 'node': xmlValidGetValidElements(node->prev, node->next, ... to prepend a child to 'node': xmlValidGetValidElements(NULL, node->childs, to append a child to 'node': xmlValidGetValidElements(node->last, NULL, ...

pointers to the element names are inserted at the beginning of the array and do not need to be freed.

Deprecated
  This feature will be removed.

Parameters

  prev | an element to insert after
  next | an element to insert next
  names | an array to store the list of child names
  max | the size of the array

Returns
  the number of element in the list, or -1 in case of error. If the function returns the value max the caller is invited to grow the receiving array and retry.

|  | const xmlChar * | value )

Performs the validation-related extra step of the normalization of attribute values:

Deprecated
  Internal function, don't use.

If the declared value is not CDATA, then the XML processor must further process the normalized attribute value by discarding any leading and trailing space (#x20) characters, and by replacing sequences of space (#x20) characters by single space (#x20) character.

Parameters

  doc | the document
  elem | the parent
  name | the attribute name
  value | the attribute value

Returns
  a new normalized string if normalization is needed, NULL otherwise. The caller must free the returned value.
