Up: Contents Previous: 35 Elements Next: 37 Obtaining TEI WSDs

Full copies of the TEI DTD fragments are not repeated in this document, although they may be reconstituted by a careful reading of each chapter.

The DTD fragments are widely available over the Internet and elsewhere. The canonical home for the TEI DTD fragments is the TEI web server at http://www.tei-c.org/Guidelines/DTD/. Copies of the Guidelines and the DTD are also available from the TEI in other forms, and are also served from a variety of other sources on the Internet. Note that the current version of the TEI DTD is supplied in a form which can be used with either SGML or XML processors, depending on the setting of the TEI.XML parameter variable, as further discussed in section 3.8.4 Generation of an XML DTD.

The following tables give for each of the files making up the current release:

1. the filename used in the release directory;
2. the type of declarations contained in the module;
3. the full name of the module, for use in constructing its Formal Public Identifer (FPI)
4. a cross reference to the chapter in which it is defined

. To make up the Formal Public Identifier, the full name of the module should be prefixed by the string `-//TEI P4//` and the type of declarations contained, and suffixed by the string `//EN`. Thus the FPI for the first file listed below should be `-//TEI P4//ELEMENTS Additional Element Set for Simple Analysis//EN`. Each table corresponds with a single TEI module or `tag set' i.e. a group of related DTD fragments. Tables are listed in alphabetical order.
