From User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) | Glossary for this source
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).

From Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.1 (2004-02-04) | Glossary for this source
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 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).

In some instances, a module adds attributes to an element. In these instances, the element name is followed by an ampersand (&).

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source
In-scope element declarations. Each element declaration is identified either by an expanded QName (for a top-level element declaration) or by an implementation-dependent element identifier (for a local element declaration). If the Schema Import Feature is supported, in-scope element declarations include all element declarations found in imported schemas.

From User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) | Glossary for this source
An interactive element is piece of content that, by specification, may have associated behaviors to be executed or carried out as a result of user or programmatic interaction. For instance, the interactive elements of HTMLÂ 4 [HTML4] include: links, image maps, form elements, elements with a value for the longdesc attribute, and elements with event handlers explicitly associated with them (e.g., through the various "on" attributes). The role of an element as an interactive element is subject to applicability. A non-interactive element is an element that, by format specification, does not have associated behaviors. The expectation of this document is that interactive elements become enabled elements in some sessions, and non-interactive elements never become enabled elements.

It is made explicit by an XLink linking element, which is an XLink-conforming XML element that asserts the existence of a link.

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source
In a sequence constructor, an element in the stylesheet that does not belong to the XSLT namespace and that is not an extension instruction (see ) is classified as a literal result element.
