Description

The keyword production gives the list of keywords for the RELAX NG compact syntax. Note that these keywords are reserved only when there is a risk of confusion. They can be used, for instance, as element or attribute names without being quoted. When they are reserved, they can still be used as identifiers, but they need to be quoted.
