Thank you for the advice. I looked at the Recommendation 10 April 2001 (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/) and it still has the difference between 1. the definition of the table element in the Basic Tables Module (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstract_modules.html#s_simpletab lemodule), and 2. the DTD for the Basic Tables Module (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/dtd_module_defs.html#a_module_Bas ic_Tables) In 1. the table element has a width attribute, in 2. it does not. 3. I also looked in the Modularization of XHTML(tm) in XML Schema, W3C Working Draft 15 August 2002 ( http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-xhtml-m12n-schema-20020815/) in this document the section for Basic Tables (http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-xhtml-m12n-schema-20020815/schema_module_defs. html#sec_D.4.4.) Defines the table element as follows: ... <xs:attributeGroup name="table.attlist"> <xs:attributeGroup ref="Common.attrib"/> <xs:attribute name="summary" type="Text"/> </xs:attributeGroup> ... <xs:complexType name="table.type" > <xs:group ref="table.content"/> <xs:attributeGroup ref="table.attlist"/> </xs:complexType> <xs:element name="table" type="table.type"/> I now see where I strayed into the D4.4.2. Tables and used the wrong definition for table.attlist. I infer from the fact that two out of the three definitions of the Basic Tables Module (2. in the DTD and 3. in XML Schema) do not show the table attribute with an attribute width, the statement that the table element has a width attribute made in 1. is wrong.
