Please implement the option to find nested tags when using the "Verify" functionality (QA check)

Trados Studio "Verify" (QA check) cannot be set up to throw an error if a tag is a nested tag, it can only inform on lacking or extra tags.

Nested tags are tag pairs that are situated inside another tag pair, e.g. an Italics tag pair inside a Bold tag pair. 

This is okay in Trados Studio itself, but our Content Management System (CMS) does not accept nested tags and rejects (!) the target language XML file containing nested tags when trying to import it back into the system. 

Therefore it would be very helpful if you implemented the option to find nested tags when using the "Verify" functionality.

  • XML Schema is a "rule" list which describes what structure the document can contain - in your case, I would say contact your customer and ask for this schema to be provided and then follow Studio help to set this up.

  • Dear Patrik,

    thanks a lot for your comment. Unfortunately I do not understand a word of what you are writing... 
    What is an "XML Schema based check"? 
    What is the "XML Validator"?
    To whom are you suggesting me to "provide schema which will have rules to prevent tag nesting"? To you?
    Could you give me an example of what this "schema which will have rules to prevent tag nesting" should look like?
     
    Could you please further help me?
     
    Thank you so much
    Peter
  • Hi,

    you should be able to implement rather simply XML Schema based check in the XML Validator - simply provide schema which will have rules to prevent tag nesting.
