Subject: [xliff] enumerated attributes


Folks,

I'm appending a list of attributes drawn from the DTD and the navigable
specification which appear to be candidates for enumerated value lists.  My
notes are formatted as follows:

############## (delimiter)

<name of attribute>

<definition copied from navigable specification>

# possible values for the enumerated list: derived from notes in the
specification.
# comments/questions by me (I restrained myself here but will send a
separate mail with some more general concerns <grin>).

Regards,
Eric

#############

datatype

Data type - The datatype attribute specifies the kind of text contained in
the
element. Depending on that type, you may apply different processes to the
data.

# cdf | cpp | html | java | javascript | lisp | mif | pascal | plaintext |
rtf | sgml | vbscript | winres | xml

#############

context-type

Context type - The context-type attribute specifies the context and the type
of resource or style of the data of a given element. For example, to define
if
it is a label, or a menu item in the case of resource-type data, or the
style
in the case of document-related data.

# database | element | elementTitle | record | recordTitle


#############

phase-name

Phase Name - The phase-name attribute allows to name uniquely a 
element. It is also used in other elements in the file to refer to the given
 element.

# This should be expressed as an ID <-> IDREF relation.

#############

process-name

Process name - The name specifying the type of process a given 
corresponds (e.g. Translation, Proofreading, Sizing, etc.).

# translation | editing | proofreading | sizing

#############

count-type

Count type - The count-type attribute specifies the purpose of the 
element.

# new | exact-match | fuzzy-match

#############

unit

Unit - The units counted in a  element.

# word | page

#############

restype

Resource type - Indicates the type of the container element.

# button | caption | checkbox | cell | dialog | file |
# fn | footer | font | frame | header | heading |
# keywords | label | listitem | menu | menuitem |
# message | radio | shortcut | string | var

#############

size-unit

Unit of size attributes - The size-unit attribute specifies the units of
measure used in the maxheight, minheight, maxwidth, and minwidth
attributes.

# char | byte | pixel | glyph | dlgunit default='pixel'

#############

charclass

Character class - This indicates that a translation is restricted to a
subset of characters (e.g. ASCII only, Katakana only, uppercase only,
etc.). A blank value indicates there is no limitation.

#############

origin

Translation Match Origin - The origin attribute specifies where a
translation match came from; for example, from a previous version of
the same product, a different product, a shared translation memory,
etc.

#############

ctype

Content type - The type attribute specifies the content and the type
of resource or style of the data of a given element. For example, to
define if it is a label, or a menu item in the case of resource-type
data, or the style in the case of document-related data.

# paragraphBreak | lineBreak | image | bold | font | italic |
# underscore | link

#############

id

Identifier - The id attribute is used in many elements, as a unique
reference
to the original corresponding code data or format for the given element. the
id element is not the identifier of a resource: use resname for that
purpose.

# should be of type ID, not CDATA

#############

rid

Reference identifier - The rid attribute is used to link different elements
that are related. For example, a reference to its definition, or paragraphs
belonging to the same group, etc.

# should be of type IDREF, not NMTOKEN

#############

mid

Marker ID - Identifier for an  element.

# why does this exist independently of "id" ?  
# should be of type ID, not CDATA

#############

mtype

Marker type - The mtype attribute specifies what an  element is
defining within the content of a  or  element.
