datatype

From XForms 1.0 (2003-10-14) | Glossary for this source

From XML Schema [XML Schema part 2]: A 3-tuple, consisting of a) a set of distinct values, called its value space, b) a set of lexical representations, called its lexical space, and c) a set of facets that characterize properties of the value space, individual values or lexical items.

an OWL property that relates individuals to data values
default element/type namespace.

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

Default element/type namespace. This is a namespace URI or "none". The namespace URI, if present, is used for any unprefixed QName appearing in a position where an element or type name is expected.

defining the type of attribute values

From Modularization of XHTML (2001-04-10) | Glossary for this source

When a module defines the type of an attribute value, it does so by listing the type in parentheses after the attribute name.
document type

From Modularization of XHTML (2001-04-10) | Glossary for this source

a class of documents sharing a common abstract structure. The ISO 8879 [SGML] definition is as follows: "a class of documents having similar characteristics; for example, journal, article, technical manual, or memo. (4.102)"a formal, machine-readable expression of the XML structure and syntax rules to which a document instance of a specific document type must conform; the schema type used in XML 1.0 to validate conformance of a document instance to its declared document type. The same markup model may be expressed by a variety of DTDs.
document type declaration

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

The XML document type declaration contains or points to markup declarations that provide a grammar for a class of documents. This grammar is known as a document type definition, or DTD. The document type declaration can point to an external subset (a special kind of external entity) containing markup declarations, or can contain the markup declarations directly in an internal subset, or can do both. The DTD for a document consists of both subsets taken together.

The document type declaration can point to an external subset (a special kind of external entity) containing markup declarations, or can contain the markup declarations directly in an internal subset, or can do both. The DTD for a document consists of both subsets taken together.
document type definition (DTD)

From Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) Version 2.0 (2001-02-21) | Glossary for this source

document type definition (DTD)

From Modularization of XHTML (2001-04-10) | Glossary for this source

a formal, machine-readable expression of the XML structure and syntax rules to which a document instance of a specific document type must conform; the schema type used in XML 1.0 to validate conformance of a document instance to its declared document type. The same markup model may be expressed by a variety of DTDs.
dynamic type

From XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

A dynamic type is associated with each value as it is computed. The dynamic type of a value may be more specific than the static type of the expression that computed it (for example, the static type of an expression might be xs:integer*, denoting a sequence of zero or more integers, but at evaluation time its value may have the dynamic type xs:integer, denoting exactly one integer.)

From Modularization of XHTML (2001-04-10) | Glossary for this source
