Please proceed as follows: [1] Comment out <cfg:validate.../> in your .xxe file. [2] Open a document containing one or more <cggv:xhelp>/<xhtml:body> elements. [3] Validate your document. If my guesses are right, you should see: "error: cannot find a declaration for child element xhtml:body". If my guesses are right, your validation problem is not related to <cfg:validate.../> at all. It is related to the way you have defined <cggv:xhelp> in your custom W3C XML Schema. That is, does <cggv:xhelp> allow some ``wildcard contents'' with processContents="lax" or processContents="skip"? > + Some of the keyboard shortcuts used when authoring XHTML in the styled > view do not work (e.g. <Enter> to add new list items).

Also please remember that in the XHTML stock configuration, <Enter> *cannot* be used to add new list items. It's Ctrl-<Enter>.

You need to write a *macro* which does what's described above. --> I think that we have reached here the limits of normal, informal, support: * If you suspect you have found bugs (e.g. the validation errors and/or the missing bindings), do not hesitate to send us your configuration so we can reproduce these bugs. * If you want us to turn your configuration into a production-quality add-on, for example by writing the above macro, please consider purchasing a number of xe-su units.
