====== XMLmind workflow ======

The XXE (XMLmind XML Editor) is designed not to break XML documents. If a well-formed XML document is loaded, it is not possible to create ill-formed XML. In addition to that, a schema is loaded that checks if the structure and values of the XML are coherent (or //valid// in XML terms). The schema also controls which tags can be inserted at a specific position in a document. This is a great help while editing XML files for EOA.

For example, a bibliographical reference is created by a ''ref'' element inside a ''bibl'' element. The ''ref'' element requires as attributes
  
* the cited work in form of a short citekey (e.g. ''Needham:1954'', prefixed with ''#'')

* the way the citation should be rendered (as author and year or simply the year)

All this information is stored in the schema, and by inserting a new ''bibl'' element, a boilerplate of this structure is inserted:

{{:support:xmlmindbiblref-autoinsertion.png?nolink&200|}}

Moreover, the since in the context of a bibliographical reference the ''type'' attribute of ''ref'' can be nothing else but ''authoryear'' or ''year'', only these two values are offered when specifing the value:

{{:support:xmlmind_biblref-attribute.png?nolink&400|}}
