Hi,
Why not map your Output element to <example role="Output">, and not use
<figure> in it at all? In DocBook 5, figure and example have the same
content model.

Subject: RE: [docbook] customize xslt or customize the schema?
Hi Dick,
I'd rather customize the stylesheet too, but now that I'm actually trying to
validate, I get this from the oNVDL validator:
error: assertion failed:
figure must not occur in the descendants of example
So I guess I'm going to *have* to customize the schema since my 'Output'
always occurs in examples.
rats.
thanks,
--Tim

Tim,
To the extent that I understand what you are trying
to do, I think I'd go with customizing the stylesheet.
I prefer not to mess with the schema unless I have to.
