There is no bug and no regression here: with <info><orgname>Hdm</orgname></info>, XXE (v3.6 or v4 or v4.1) has switched to *lenient* editing mode (which means that XXE allows to insert any element). Notice the jagged lines in the node path bar (see attached screen shots) which show you that XXE is at loss with an info element without title. Excerpt of http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/changes.html: --- If you need to add meta-info to a DocBook 5 book, please restrict yourself to replacing its title element by an info(title) template. Do not replace the title element by info(no_title) and do not insert info(no_title) after the title element as this would cause XMLmind XML Editor to automatically switch to lenient mode. This limitation is specific to the title and meta-info of a book (because the title element is optional in info(title) which makes the content model truly ambiguous). There is no such problem for the title and meta-info of a chapter or a section. --- See also http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/rngsupport/friendly_content_models.html#unfriendly_content_models > Even more strange: The new Xmlmind 4.1 creates a different dummy <info> > namely: > > ... > <info> > <title></title> > > <author> > <personname><firstname></firstname><surname></surname></personname> > > <affiliation> > <orgname></orgname> > </affiliation> > </author> > > <pubdate></pubdate> > </info> > ... > > Using this one works fine.

Of course, it is best to never, ever, use in your document templates a book/info element without a title. > System: Xmlmind 4.1.0 running on linux , java version 1.5.0_16, Plugins > see attached png file.
