wrong grammar specification on the official rnc syntax website ?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, 

I have read the rnc official syntax specification :
http://www.thaiopensource.com/relaxng/jing.html

Yet, I have seen a divergence between this grammar and the execution of
jing application.
Indeed, the grammar indicates that a attribute can contain another
attribute but jing can't do it.

Do you know if the grammar is wrong or not ?

Please, help me.

Please supply a complete example where you believe jing is behaving incorrectly.

Thank you for your answer.
Sorry for not replying quickly,

Actually, I think that jing has a good behavior but its grammar is not the one :
http://www.thaiopensource.com/relaxng/jing.html

Indeed, the two following lines are strange :
pattern   ::=   "element" nameClass "{" pattern "}"
| "attribute" nameClass "{" pattern "}"
...

When I use jing to verify a instance of relaxng, a attribute can't contain a
attribute and it is correct. Yet, the two lines on the grammar indicate the 
contrary.

So, I think that jing uses an other grammar.
