I am investigating how to carry translation note including link for external materials.
In XLIFF 2.1 specification, <note> element can have optional format style attributes â fs:fs ad fs:subFs. And the format style attributes from HTML including many inline elements. However, I have no idea how we can use them in <note>.
For example, if you want HTML fragment:
Please check <a href="">the screen capture</a>.
as <note> value, I may put fs:fs attribute like <notes fs:fs="html">, but it looks there is no way to represent inline <a> element in this case.
If this is a part of <source> or <target>, I understand it can be represented as below:
But, I don't think <pc> is allowed in <note> value If my understanding is correct.
Of course, if we put <a> tag as "<a>" in <note> body, it is valid, but I suspect this is what the spec suggests.
<notes>
<note fs:fs="html">Please check <a href="">the screen capture</a>.</note>
</notes>
Above should be valid, but I think this is not what XLIFF spec author thought about.
Do I misunderstand the specification? If not, what is the typical use case for fs:fs/fs:SubFs attribute in <note> element?
Thanks,
Yoshito
