Member of classes | (none)
Members | global
Declaration |
    <!ENTITY % a.terminology '
          group CDATA #IMPLIED
          grpPtr IDREF #IMPLIED
          depend CDATA #IMPLIED
          depPtr IDREF #IMPLIED'>
Attributes | (In addition to global attributes)
`group` | indicates the group (term and related elements) to which this element should be associated by specifying a string matching the `n` attribute value on an appropriate element.
| Datatype: CDATA
| Values: any string matching the `n` attribute value on the `<term>` element to which the group is attached.
| Default: #IMPLIED
| Example:
Note | The `group` attribute provides a specialized pointing mechanism for use within `<termEntry>` elements.
`grpPtr` | indicates the group (term and related elements) to which this element should be associated by specifying its unique identifier, where this is available.
| Datatype: IDREF
| Values: the value specified must match a value supplied as the value for an `id` attribute on some `<term>` element in the current document.
| Default: #IMPLIED
| Example:
Note | The `group` attribute provides a specialized pointing mechanism for use within `<termEntry>` elements.
`depend` | indicates the parent element to which this element should be associated by specifying a string matching the `n` attribute value on an appropriate element.
| Datatype: CDATA
| Values: any string matching the `n` attribute value on the element to which the dependent element is attached.
| Default: #IMPLIED
| Example:
`depPtr` | indicates the parent element to which this element should be associated by specifying its unique identifier, where this is available.
| Datatype: IDREF
| Values: the value specified must match a value supplied as the value for an `id` attribute on some `<term>` element in the current SGML or XML document.
| Default: #IMPLIED
| Example:

Note

The attributes shared by this element class are used for linking elements, possibly not adjacent in the record, which are related (e.g. a grammatical annotation and the term it describes). If no attribute is specified, the element is assumed to relate to the most recently specified `<term>` or `<otherForm>` element.
