Re: XML error: <superscript> within <guibutton>

[Breda McColgan <breda mccolgan sun com>]

Hi Eric,

thank you for replying so promptly :)


Unfortunately, the workaround you suggested gives me a similar error:
"
gcalctool.xml:438: validity error: Element literal is not declared in
guibutton list of possible children

<guibutton><literal>x<superscript>2</superscript></literal></guibutton>
"



The only tags allowed within <guibutton> are the following:
- <accel>
- <indexterm>
- <inlinegraphic>
- <inlinemediaobject>
- <replaceable>



Any other ideas, anyone?



I've logged an RFE:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=373747&aid=697432&group_id=21935



Regards,
Breda.
