This example shows global rules that select all msg elements with the class attribute value set to "DisableInfo" and associate them with a note that describes how the message is to be used. It also gives this note a type of 'alert'.
Note, also, that we used an its:translate="no" attribute locally on the ITS global rules markup to indicate that the note itself should not be translated.
[Note that using text such as "The X has been disabled" in this way is very bad practice! For more information about that see the W3C I18n article "Using Composite Messages".]
