[eml-dev] error message

[Inigo San Gil]

Dear Xiaoping,
  
    Without seeing the eml doc itself, is hard to say, as some error 
messages are somewhat cryptic.
 
    However, in this case it seems that after the child element  <para> 
you did not specify what type of  "paragraph"  you have at hand,
that is, you need another child before putting the explicit content. 
This child could be one of  the list (in these case, literal text markups):

<itemizedlist>
<orderedlist>
<emphasis>
<subscript>
<superscript>
<literalLayout>

  One of the most common childs I've seen used here is the last one, 
<literalLayout>.

Example: -------------------------------------------------------------------

This is your document:

 <abstract>
         <para>
               Some abstract blah blah blah BlaH!
         </para>
</abstract>

To make it (schema) valid, replace by this XML chunk:

 
  <abstract>
          <para>
                 <literalLayout>
                                       Some abstract blah blah blah BlaH!
                 </literalLayout>
          </para>
 </abstract>

------------------------------------------------

Next time I'd suggest you include your EML doc..

Cheers, Inigo
