This document uses the terms "element" and
"element type" primarily in the sense employed by the XML 1.0
specification ([XML], section 3): an element type is a syntactic
construct of a document type definition (DTD) for its application.
This sense is also relevant to structures defined by XML schemas.
The document also uses the term "element" more generally to mean a
type of content (such as video or sound) or a logical construct
(such as a header or list).

Each XML document contains one or more
elements, the boundaries of which are either delimited by
start-tags and end-tags, or, for empty elements, by an
empty-element tag. Each element has a type, identified by name,
sometimes called its generic identifier (GI), and MAY have a set of
attribute specifications.

From XML Linking Language
(XLink) (2001-06-27) |
Glossary for this
source
An application traversing to the ending
resource should load its presentation in place of the presentation
of the starting resource. This is similar to the effect achieved by
the following HTML fragment:<IMG
SRC="http://www.example.org/smiley.gif" ALT=":-)">The
presentation of the starting resource typically does not consist of
an entire document; it would be the entire document only when the
root element of the document is a simple link. Thus, embedding
typically has an effect distinct from replacing.Just as for the
HTML IMG element, embedding affects only the presentation of the
relevant resources; it does not dictate permanent transformation of
the starting resource. Put another way, when an embedded XLink is
processed, the result of styling the ending resource of the link is
merged into the result of styling the resource into which it is
embedded. By contrast, when a construct such as an XInclude element
is resolved, the original XML is actually transformed to include
the referenced content.The behavior of conforming XLink
applications when embedding XML-based ( or ) ending resources is
not defined in this version of this specification.The presentation
of embedded resources is application dependent.

From User Agent
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) |
Glossary for this
source
An enabled element is a piece of content
with associated behaviors that can be activated through the user
interface or through an API. The set of elements that a user agent
enables is generally derived from, but is not limited to, the set
of interactive elements defined by implemented markup languages.
Some elements may only be enabled elements for part of a user
session. For instance, an element may be disabled by a script as
the result of user interaction. Or, an element may only be enabled
during a given time period (e.g., during part of a SMIL 1.0 [SMIL]
presentation). Or, the user may be viewing content in "read-only"
mode, which may disable some elements.A disabled element is a piece
of content that is potentially an enabled element, but is not in
the current session. One example of a disabled element is a menu
item that is unavailable in the current session; it might be
"grayed out" to show that it is disabled. Generally, disabled
elements will be interactive elements that are not enabled in the
current session. This document distinguishes disabled elements (not
currently enabled) from non-interactive elements (never
enabled).For the requirements of this document, user selection does
not constitute user interaction with enabled elements. See the
definition of content focus.Note: Enabled and disabled elements
come from content; they are not part of the user agent user
interface.Note: The term "active element" is not used in this
document since it may suggest several different concepts,
including: interactive element, enabled element, an element "in the
process of being activated" (which is the meaning of :active in
CSS2 [CSS2], for example).

Glossary for this
source
If present, a version declaration may
optionally include an encoding declaration. The value of the string
literal following the keyword encoding is an encoding name, and
must conform to the definition of EncName specified in . The
purpose of an encoding declaration is to allow the writer of a
query to provide a string that indicates how the query is encoded,
such as "UTF-8", "UTF-16", or "US-ASCII".
