Hello. I'd like to use a read-only text field to display instructions for the next field in metadata. I am trying to use the value attribute, which the documentation says is available, and it is listed as an optional attribute in the DTD, but I get an error when I try to submit the xml file.

Below is my xml. It works if I remove the value attribute, so I know the xml format is good.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE property-groups PUBLIC "-//OpenKM//DTD Property Groups 2.3//EN"
                                 "http://www.openkm.com/dtd/property-groups-2.3.dtd">

<property-groups>
    <property-group label="Testing Metadata" name="okg:fubar">
        <textarea label="Instructions" name="okp:fubar.instructions" width="200px" readonly="true" value="I'll put instructions for the next field here" />
    </property-group>
</property-groups>

I don't understand why the parser is throwing an error.

OpenKM version is 6.3.9CE and browser is Firefox 108.0.1.

Thanks for any insight you can give!

That happens because, in the dtd, the textarea does not have the attribute value. I suggest adding an issue at https://github.com/openkm/document-management-system
