ratio | ' : 1' | Do not include apostrophe (') characters as part of the elements contents. The apostrophes show that a space character is required before and after the colon (:) character. For example, <Units>' : 1'</Units> is not valid and will cause an error. However, <Units> : 1</Units> is valid. It is easier and more reliable simply to use the full name "ratio".
