Legal values are:
true
the example is intended to be fully valid, assuming that its root element, or a provided root element, could have been used as a possible root element in the schema concerned. [Default]
feasible
the example could be transformed into a valid document by inserting any number of valid attributes and child elements anywhere within it; or it is valid against a version of the schema concerned in which the provision of character data, list, element, or attribute values has been made optional.
false
the example is not intended to be valid, and contains deliberate errors.

adding missing components -->

Example

<!-- This example is not TEI at all -->

Note

In the source of the TEI Guidelines, this element declares itself and its content as belonging to the namespace http://www.tei-c.org/ns/Examples. This enables the content of the element to be validated independently against the TEI scheme. Where this element is used outside this context, a different namespace or none at all may be preferable. The content must however be a well-formed XML fragment or document: where this is not the case, the more general eg element should be used in preference. In a TEI context use of the rend attribute in the TEI namespace, as opposed to the TEI Examples namespace, enables recording of rendition information.
