You can't constrain the content in that way with a DTD. The best you
do is
<!ELEMENT rho0 (#PCDATA|comment)*>
which allows any mixture of comments and text.
The only alternative is to change the structure, perhaps as you
suggest by putting the data in another element, or perhaps by
making the comment into an attribute.
