DTDs do not allow you to put rules in that make attributes conditionally required based on the value of other attributes. You can't even do it for elements -- at least not based on the value of an element. The only way you can do conditional requirements is with element content models and different element names. For example: <!ELEMENT func (func1|func2)+> <!ELEMENT func1 EMPTY> <!ATTLIST func1 param0 CDATA #REQUIRED param1 CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ELEMENT func2 EMPTY> <!ATTLIST func2 param2 CDATA #REQUIRED param3 CDATA #REQUIRED> This would allow func to contain one or more func1 or func2 elements in any order. Func1 must have the attributes param0 and param1 and func2 must have the attributes param2 and param3. This is as close as you can get with a DTD to what you asked for.
