To identify preformatted elements in which white space should be preserved using the linespecific notation 2. To identify the targets of olink elements As near as I can tell it does not use notations to identify the types of graphic elements such as imagedata. Although these elements have format attributes, those attributes have an enumerated type, not a NOTATION type. Docbook does not appear to use unparsed entities. >TEI, there's >http://www.tei-c.org/TEI/Guidelines/ref/WSDXFIG.htm (that's the sgml >version, but I think the xml one's the same, couldn't see a link off >hand) > That does seem to use both unparsed entities and notations. -- +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | Elliotte Rusty Harold | elharo@m... | Writer/Programmer | +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | The XML Bible, 2nd Edition (Hungry Minds, 2001) | | http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/books/bible2/ | | http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0764547607/cafeaulaitA/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Read Cafe au Lait for Java News: http://www.cafeaulait.org/ | | Read Cafe con Leche for XML News: http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+
