THE XML REVOLUTION - TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE FUTURE WEB |
Two kinds of links:
<mylink xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="..." xlink:show="..." .../> |
is equivalent to:
<mylink xlink:type="extended"> <myresource xlink:type="resource" xlink:role="local"/> <myresource xlink:type="locator" xlink:role="remote" xlink:href="..."/> <myarc xlink:type="arc" xlink:from="local" xlink:to="remote" xlink:show="..." .../> </mylink> |
Many XLink properties (e.g. xlink:type and xlink:show) can conveniently be specified as defaults in the schema definition!
When should I use XLink? Tim Berners-Lee: only for hypertext linking (Not everybody agree...)
