Hi all, In most of the MathML 3 specification, the content model is described using the 'content' field, and if qualifiers are allowed in the content, this is mentioned in the 'Content' row of the table. Throughout most of the specification, mentioning something in the 'Qualifiers' row for an element doesn't imply that the qualifier can be a child element of that element, and instead implies that the qualifier is used with the parent apply element - this is explicitly stated in the last paragraph of 4.1.5. However, when constructor elements are defined (for example, in section 4.4.5.1), qualifiers are listed in the Qualifier row, but not in the Content row. The examples (and the 'Parsing MathML' appendix, and the transformation rule in 4.3.4.2.2), however, contradict the lack of the qualifiers in the element content, so it seems that the omission of the qualifiers from the 'Content' rows of the constructors must have been accidental. Best wishes, Andrew
