C Infoset Mapping

Infoset Mapping

Philippe Le Hégaret, W3C

This appendix contains the mappings between the XML Information Set [InfoSet] model and the Document Object Model. Starting from a Document node, each information item is mapped to its respective Node, and each Node is mapped to its respective information item. As used in the Infoset specification, the Infoset property names are shown in square brackets, [thus].

Unless specified, the Infoset to DOM node mapping makes no distinction between unknown and no value since both will be exposed as null (or false if the DOM attribute is of type boolean).
