Hi:

I am trying to apply appropriate constraints on the content model for my
RDF schema. See

     http://www2.elsevier.co.uk/~tony/cookbook/doc/yads.html

for a schema tree - resources are clickable. (Background: The YADS model is
aimed at providing a simple means to manage resource collections.)

My question is if I have this DTD for an <item> element


  <!ELEMENT item (property*, (resource | collection), property*)>

  <!ELEMENT collection (nest+ | item+)>
  <!ELEMENT resource (#PCDATA)>
  <!ELEMENT property (#PCDATA)>


then is the below the correct way of implementing this in DAML+OIL or is it
simpler than this?

Thanks,
Tony
