I wanted to make sure that our definition of "Element" adequately covers our usage in definitions such as "Text element". Is our usage as a "logical construct" or something else? I think it as a "unit of content" rather than necessarily being tied to particular "type of content". For example, a "multimedia presentation" might be considered an element, but also might its visual track or even a text equivalent of a visual track might be considered "elements". Your comments welcome. Old (29 September 2000): "Element This document uses the term "element" both in the XML sense (an element is a syntactic construct as described in the XML 1.0 specification [XML], section 3) and more generally to mean a type of content (such as video or sound) or a logical construct (such as a header or list)." New: "Element This document uses the term "element" both in the XML sense (an element is a syntactic construct as described in the XML 1.0 specification [XML], section 3) and more generally to mean a unit of content (text element or non-text element) or a logical construct (such as a header or list)." <END OF MEMO>Received on Friday, 20 October 2000 17:16:09 GMT
