DocBook XML is superficially compatible with DocBook SGML but has a slightly stricter DTD that we have been violating in a few cases. Although XSLT doesn't care whether the document is valid, the style sheets don't necessarily process invalid documents correctly, so we need to work toward fixing this. This first commit moves the indexterms in refentry elements to an allowed position. It has no impact on the output.

<para>

<command>CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW</command> defines a materialized view of
|
|
a query. The query is executed and used to populate the view at the time
|
|
the command is issued (unless <command>WITH NO DATA</> is used) and may be
|
|
refreshed later using <command>REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW</command>.

<para>

|
<command>CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW</command> is similar to
|
|
<command>CREATE TABLE AS</>, except that it also remembers the query used
|
|
to initialize the view, so that it can be refreshed later upon demand.
|
|
A materialized view has many of the same properties as a table, but there
|
|
is no support for temporary materialized views or automatic generation of
|
|
OIDs.
