Documentation

The Tag Library for version 3.0 is here: https://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/book/tag-library/3.0/

The version 3.0 tag libraries allow direct access by tag name to the element, attribute, and parameter entity pages. To link to one of these pages, construct a URL with the following content, concatenated without spaces or separators:

• the full URL of the top (https://.../index.html) page of the Tag Library

• a "?"

• a code indicating what sort of page you are seeking:

  • "elem" for element pages

  • "attr" for attribute pages

  • "pe" for parameter entity pages

• "="

• the tag, attribute-tag, or parameter-entity-tag (that is, the version of the names that are used in the document or in other content models, not the multi-word version).

For example, to directly address the <award-group> element in the Publishing Tag Library, assemble:

• https://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/publishing/tag-library/3.0/index.html

• ?

• elem

• =

• award-group

That would make the complete link: https://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/publishing/tag-library/3.0/index.html?elem=award-group.

Similarly, to link to the article-type attribute in archiving:

• https://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/archiving/tag-library/3.0/index.html

• ?

• attr

• =

• article-type

The complete link would be: https://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/archiving/tag-library/3.0/index.html?attr=article-type

To link to the emphasis.class parameter entity in the authoring Tag Library:

• https://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/articleauthoring/tag-library/3.0/index.html

• ?

• pe

• =

• emphasis.class

The complete link would be: https://dtd.nlm.nih.gov/articleauthoring/tag-library/3.0/index.html?pe=emphasis.class.
