document order

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

A document order is defined among all the nodes accessible during a given query or transformation. Document order is a total ordering, although the relative order of some nodes is implementation-dependent. Informally, document order is the order in which nodes appear in the XML serialization of a document.
document order

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

There is an ordering, document order, defined on all the nodes in the document corresponding to the order in which the first character of the XML representation of each node occurs in the XML representation of the document after expansion of general entities. Thus, the root node will be the first node. Element nodes occur before their children. Thus, document order orders element nodes in order of the occurrence of their start-tag in the XML (after expansion of entities). The attribute nodes and namespace nodes of an element occur before the children of the element. The namespace nodes are defined to occur before the attribute nodes. The relative order of namespace nodes is implementation-dependent. The relative order of attribute nodes is implementation-dependent.

document order

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

The term document order has the same meaning as depth first, pre-order traversal, which is equivalent to the order in which the start tags occur in the text representation of the document.

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

Reverse document order is the reverse of document order.
reverse document order

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

The node ordering that is the reverse of document order is called reverse document order.
