Subject: Re: [docbook] Element for an author's website URL
Hi, > [...] > > Maybe I am missing something obvious, but why not use link? > > Because it's a link, not a URL But a link can also be a URI/URL. According to the TDG[1]: »The link is a general purpose hypertext element. [...] If it has an xlink:href attribute, link is the equivalent of an HTML anchor (<html:a href="...">) for cross reference with a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI).« Maybe I didn't understand your argument. But why introduce another element when there is already a general purpose element for this issue? :-) Bye, Tom ------ [1] http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/link.html
