element type declaration

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

An element type declaration takes the form:
element, element type

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).
in-scope schema types.

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

In-scope schema types. Each schema type definition is identified either by an expanded QName (for a named type) or by an implementation-dependent type identifier (for an anonymous type). The in-scope schema types include the predefined schema types described in . If the Schema Import Feature is supported, in-scope schema types also include all type definitions found in imported schemas.
in-scope schema types.

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

In-scope schema types. Each schema type definition is identified either by an expanded QName (for a named type) or by an implementation-dependent type identifier (for an anonymous type). The in-scope schema types include the predefined schema types described in .
media type

From Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) Version 1.0 (2004-09-07) | Glossary for this source

A media type (defined in [ RFC2045 ] and [ RFC2046 ]) specifies the nature of a linked resource. Media types are case insensitive. A list of registered media types is available for download [ TYPES ]. See Appendix C for information on media types for SSML.
parent document type

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

A parent document type of a hybrid document is the document type of the root element.
primitive simple types

From XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model (XDM) (2007-01-23) | Glossary for this source

There are 23 primitive simple types: the 19 defined in of and xs:untyped, xs:untypedAtomic, xs:anyAtomicType, xs:dayTimeDuration, and xs:yearMonthDuration
principal node type

From XML Path Language (XPath) (1999-11-16) | Glossary for this source

Every axis has a principal node type. If an axis can contain elements, then the principal node type is element; otherwise, it is the type of the nodes that the axis can contain.
required type

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

The context within a stylesheet where an XPath expressionappears may specify the required type of the expression. The required type indicates the type of the value that the expression is expected to return.
schema type

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

A schema type is a type that is (or could be) defined using the facilities of (including the built-in types of ).
schema type

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

A schema type is a type that is (or could be) defined using the facilities of (including the built-in types of ).
sequence type

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

A sequence type is a type that can be expressed using the SequenceType syntax. Sequence types are used whenever it is necessary to refer to a type in an XQuery expression. The term sequence type suggests that this syntax is used to describe the type of an XQuery value, which is always a sequence.

A sequence type is a type that can be expressed using the SequenceType syntax. Sequence types are used whenever it is necessary to refer to a type in an XPath expression. The term sequence type suggests that this syntax is used to describe the type of an XPath value, which is always a sequence.
sequenceType matching

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

During evaluation of an expression, it is sometimes necessary to determine whether a value with a known dynamic type "matches" an expected sequence type. This process is known as SequenceType matching.

During evaluation of an expression, it is sometimes necessary to determine whether a value with a known dynamic type "matches" an expected sequence type. This process is known as SequenceType matching.
static type

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

The static type of an expression is a type such that, when the expression is evaluated, the resulting value will always conform to the static type.
static type

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

The static type of an expression is a type such that, when the expression is evaluated, the resulting value will always conform to the static type.
statically known default collection type.

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

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

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

Statically known default collection type. This is the type of the sequence of nodes that would result from calling the fn:collection function with no arguments.
subtype substitution

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

The use of a value whose dynamic type is derived from an expected type is known as subtype substitution.
