Wow, good memory. That "longdescre" attribute was defined on <object> way back in DITA 1.0. It was never defined in the specification text. The DITA 1.1 and 1.2 DTD grammar files contained this comment next to the definition of <object>: <!-- The longdescre attribute is an error which appeared in the original DTD implementation of OASIS DITA. It is an error that is not part of the standard. It was left here to provide time to change documents, but it will be removed at a later date. The longdescref (with ending F) should be used instead. --> The comment was lost in DITA 1.3 with the generated DTDs, but the attribute remains, for the same reason. We should definitely remove it in DITA 2.0. Regards, Robert D. Anderson DITA-OT lead and Co-editor DITA 1.3 specification , Digital Services Group E-mail:
