I verified that both of Tim's examples also fail validation in XXE and Oxygen.
So either TDG5 is wrong or the schema is wrong.
Anyone know which?

Subject: [docbook] quote inside code. WAS emphasis inside command is illegal?
Here's another problem, showing that <quote> cannot occur inside <code>
The doc says its allowed, at least as far I can see. It actually says "quote (db_quote)". not sure what the parenthetical means here.
http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/code.html
nvdl validation chokes:
error: element "quote" from namespace "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" not allowed in this context
the document:
<chapter xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" version="5.0">
<info><title>My Title</title></info>
<para>text with <code>print <quote>hello</quote></code>
</para>
</chapter>
Either I'm misunderstanding or there are several errors of this type in the doc. I'm hoping it's me, since I've written a converter based on the info in the doc!
