Title Element

• A <title> element may occur at the top of the schema and at the top of each pattern. (Put it immediately after the <include> elements, if present)
• Use the <title> element to give a title for the schema or pattern.

Example of Using the Title Element

1. <sch:schema ...
2. <title>Implementation of a Security Policy</title>
3. <sch:pattern id="SecurityClassificationPolicy">
4. <title>Implementation of a Security Policy</title>
5. ...
6. </sch:pattern>
7. <sch:pattern id="ReservedWordFilter">
8. <title>Check for Reserved Words</title>
9. ...
10. </sch:pattern>
11. </sch:schema>

value-of Element

• The <value-of element is used in <assert> and <diagnostic> elements.
• It is exactly like the XSLT value-of element: it has a select attribute whose value is an XPath expression. It is used to identify a value in the XML document that you want output.

name Element

• The <name element is also used in <assert> and <diagnostic> elements.
• It is exactly like the XSLT name() function.
• It outputs the name of the current node.
• It has an optional path attribute, whose value is an XPath expression, for identifying a node whose name you want output.

queryBinding Attribute

• The root element, schema, has an optional queryBinding attribute.
• It is used to specify the language used in (rule) context expressions and (assert) test expressions.
• To indicate that you will be using XPath 2 expressions, set queryBinding="XSLT2"

defaultPhase Attribute

• The root element, schema, has an optional defaultPhase attribute.
• Set its value to the id of a phase element.
• By default, its value is #all, to indicate that all phases are active.
