Hm,

The rule incorrectly outputs the warning when there is no blank in the element, even with the change you're proposing.

All DITA elements seem to have a class attribute. The other Schematron rules I am using are all written with class attributes and they work.

I don't know if the following has to do with this issue. Since today I am always getting the following error when I save a Schematron rule. I then click "Save anyway".

access denied ("java.security.AllPermission" "<all permissions>" "<all actions>")

I don't know what is causing this.

Moin!

Hi all,

I want to write a Schematron rule which checks whether a keyref'ed element contains a blank character.

WRONG:   <ph keyref="mykey"> </ph>

CORRECT: <ph keyref="mykey"></ph>

I adapted another rule and tried the following, but it does not work as expected.
In addition, it should apply to any keyref'ed element, not only to <ph>.

  <sch:pattern id="Check_blanks" xmlns:sch="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/schematron">
    <sch:rule context="*[contains(@class, 'ph')][@keyref]">
      <sch:assert test="not(contains(text(), ' '))">No blank allowed inside keyref'ed ph elements</sch:assert>
    </sch:rule>
  </sch:pattern>

Your rule matches all elements with @keyref and with an @class
attribute that contains 'ph'.

The two examples do not have a @class attribute, thus the rule doesn't
fire.

Maybe rewrite the rule as

sch:rule context="*[@keyref]"?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
