decimal format

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

All the xsl:decimal-format declarations in a stylesheet that share the same name are grouped into a named decimal format; those that have no name are grouped into a single unnamed decimal format.
declaration

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

An instance of the declare element.
declaration order

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

The declarations within a stylesheet level have a total ordering known as declaration order. The order of declarations within a stylesheet level is the same as the document order that would result if each stylesheet module were inserted textually in place of the xsl:include element that references it.
declarations

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

Top-level elements fall into two categories: declarations, and user-defined data elements. Top-level elements whose names are in the XSLT namespace are declarations. Top-level elements in any other namespace are user-defined data elements (see )
declared

From Namespaces in XML 1.1 (2004-02-04) | Glossary for this source

A namespace (or more precisely, a namespace binding) is declared using a family of reserved attributes. Such an attribute's name must either be xmlns or begin xmlns:. These attributes, like any other XML attributes, may be provided directly or by default.
declared

From Namespaces in XML (1999-01-14) | Glossary for this source

A namespace is declared using a family of reserved attributes. Such an attribute's name must either be xmlns or have xmlns: as a prefix. These attributes, like any other XML attributes, may be provided directly or by default.
decomposition

From Glossary of Terms for Device Independence (2005-01-18) | Glossary for this source

The act of dividing up one or more authored units during creation of a set of perceivable units appropriate for a particular delivery context. This definition has been superseded. There is a new definition of decomposition .

deepest

From Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Traversal and Range Specification (2000-11-13) | Glossary for this source

The deepest element is that element which is furthest from the root or document element in a tree model of the document.
default

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

If the declaration is neither #REQUIRED nor #IMPLIED, then the AttValue value contains the declared default value; the #FIXED keyword states that the attribute MUST always have the default value. When an XML processor encounters an element without a specification for an attribute for which it has read a default value declaration, it MUST report the attribute with the declared default value to the application.
default

From Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (2000-10-06) | Glossary for this source

If the declaration is neither #REQUIRED nor #IMPLIED, then the AttValue value contains the declared default value; the #FIXED keyword states that the attribute must always have the default value. If a default value is declared, when an XML processor encounters an omitted attribute, it is to behave as though the attribute were present with the declared default value.
default collation

From XSL Transformations (XSLT) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

In this specification the term default collation means the collation that is used by XPath operators such as eq and lt appearing in XPath expressions within the stylesheet.
default collation declaration

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

A default collation declaration sets the value of the default collation in the static context, overriding any implementation-defined default.
default collation.

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

Default collation. This identifies one of the collations in statically known collations as the collation to be used by functions and operators for comparing and ordering values of type xs:string and xs:anyURI (and types derived from them) when no explicit collation is specified.
default collation.

From XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

Default collation. This identifies one of the collations in statically known collations as the collation to be used by functions and operators for comparing and ordering values of type xs:string and xs:anyURI (and types derived from them) when no explicit collation is specified.
default collection.

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

Default collection. This is the sequence of nodes that would result from calling the fn:collection function with no arguments.
default collection.

From XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0 (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

Default collection. This is the sequence of nodes that would result from calling the fn:collection function with no arguments.
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.
default element/type namespace.

From XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0 (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.
default function namespace.

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

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