A document is a stream of data that, after
being combined with any other streams it references, is structured
such that it holds information contained within elements that are
organized as defined in the associated DTD. See Document

For the purpose of this specification,
"document" refers to content supplied in response to a request.
Using this definition, a "document" may be a collection of smaller
"documents", which in turn is a part of a greater "document".

From User Agent
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) |
Glossary for this
source
In this document, a document character set
(a concept from SGML) is a collection of abstract characters that a
format specification allows to appear in an instance of the format.
A document character set consists of: A "repertoire": A set of
abstract characters, such as the Latin letter "A," the Cyrillic
letter "I," and the Chinese character meaning "water."Code
positions: A set of integer references to characters in the
repertoire. For instance, the character set required by the HTML 4
specification [HTML4] is defined in the Unicode specification
[UNICODE]. Refer to "Character Model for the World Wide Web"
[CHARMOD] for more information about document character sets.

document content, structure, and presentation

From Web Content
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (1999-05-05)
| Glossary for
this source
The content of a document refers to what it
says to the user through natural language, images, sounds, movies,
animations, etc. The structure of a document is how it is organized
logically (e.g., by chapter, with an introduction and table of
contents, etc.). An element (e.g., P, STRONG, BLOCKQUOTE in HTML)
that specifies document structure is called a structural element.
The presentation of a document is how the document is rendered
(e.g., as print, as a two-dimensional graphical presentation, as an
text-only presentation, as synthesized speech, as braille, etc.) An
element that specifies document presentation (e.g., B, FONT,
CENTER) is called a presentation element.Consider a document
header, for example. The content of the header is what the header
says (e.g., "Sailboats"). In HTML, the header is a structural
element marked up with, for example, an H2 element. Finally, the
presentation of the header might be a bold block text in the
margin, a centered line of text, a title spoken with a certain
voice style (like an aural font), etc.

From User Agent
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) |
Glossary for this
source
In general usage, the term "document
object" refers to the user agent's representation of data (e.g., a
document). This data generally comes from the document source, but
may also be generated (e.g., from style sheets, scripts, or
transformations), produced as a result of preferences set within
the user agent, or added as the result of a repair performed
automatically by the user agent. Some data that is part of the
document object is routinely rendered (e.g., in HTML, what appears
between the start and end tags of elements and the values of
attributes such as alt, title, and summary). Other parts of the
document object are generally processed by the user agent without
user awareness, such as DTD- or schema-defined names of element
types and attributes, and other attribute values such as href and
id. Most of the requirements of this document apply to the document
object after its construction. However, a few checkpoints (e.g.,
checkpoints 2.7 and 2.10) may affect the construction of the
document object.A "document object model" is the abstraction that
governs the construction of the user agent's document object. The
document object model employed by different user agents may vary in
implementation and sometimes in scope. This specification requires
that user agents implement the APIs defined in Document Object
Model (DOM) Level 2 specifications ([DOM2CORE] and [DOM2STYLE]) for
access to HTML, XML, and CSS content. These DOM APIs allow authors
to access and modify the content via a scripting language (e.g.,
JavaScript) in a consistent manner across different scripting
languages.

order

From XQuery 1.0 and XPath
2.0 Data Model (XDM) (2007-01-23)
| Glossary
for this source
A document order is defined among all the
nodes accessible during a given query or transformation. Document
order is a total ordering, although the relative order of some
nodes is implementation-dependent. Informally, document order is
the order in which nodes appear in the XML serialization of a
document.

order
-
From XML Path Language (XPath) (1999-11-16) |
Glossary for this
source
There is an ordering, document order,
defined on all the nodes in the document corresponding to the order
in which the first character of the XML representation of each node
occurs in the XML representation of the document after expansion of
general entities. Thus, the root node will be the first node.
Element nodes occur before their children. Thus, document order
orders element nodes in order of the occurrence of their start-tag
in the XML (after expansion of entities). The attribute nodes and
namespace nodes of an element occur before the children of the
element. The namespace nodes are defined to occur before the
attribute nodes. The relative order of namespace nodes is
implementation-dependent. The relative order of attribute nodes is
implementation-dependent.

The term document order has the same
meaning as depth first, pre-order traversal, which is equivalent to
the order in which the start tags occur in the text representation
of the document.
