Description
Resolution:
The XML 1.0 specification requires that content models be deterministic, or unambiguous. Examples of ambiguous content models include:
((a , b) | (a , c))
(a?, b?, a*, c?)
In each case, given an initial occurrence of "a", the XML processor cannot know which "a" is being used. Because many DTD parsers do not perform a determinism check, this check can be turned off in Turbo XML (Edit>>Preferences).
