Throughout this reference, required attributes appear strong. Dynamic attributes (attributes, whose value may contains EL expressions) appear emphasized.
The elements described in the following sections are defined within namespace

If the XML parser doesn't support XML Schema, DTD validation has to be used by declaring the Calyxo Forms document type as in:
<!DOCTYPE calyxo-forms-config PUBLIC "-//Odysseus Software GmbH//DTD Calyxo Forms 0.9//EN" "calyxo-forms-config.dtd">
