textdata — Pointer to external text data
textdata ::=
info
? db.titleforbidden.info
This element points to an external entity containing text to be inserted.
Any markup in the text identified with
textdata
will be escaped. In other words, this
element is for inserting things like program listings, not parts of an
XML document. To break a document into separate physical files, use
XInclude
or external parsed entities.
May be formatted inline or as a displayed block, depending on context.
There are two ways to provide content for
textdata
: entityref
or fileref
. It is best to use only one of
these methods; however, if multiple sources are provided, entityref
will be used in favor of
fileref
.
If the encoding is such that the processor will not be able to
determine the encoding of the text, the encoding can be specified in
the encoding
attribute. For
encodings registered (as
charsets) with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority,
recommended best practice suggests that they be referred to using
their registered names.
