<prefixDef>

<prefixDef> (prefix definition) defines a prefixing scheme used in data.pointer values, showing how abbreviated URIs using the scheme may be expanded into full URIs. [16.2.3 Using Abbreviated Pointers]

Attributesatt.global (@xml:id, @n, @xml:lang, @xml:base, @xml:space) (att.global.rendition (@rend, @style, @rendition)) (att.global.linking (@corresp, @synch, @sameAs, @copyOf, @next, @prev, @exclude, @select)) (att.global.analytic (@ana)) (att.global.facs (@facs)) (att.global.change (@change)) (att.global.responsibility (@cert, @resp)) (att.global.source (@source)) att.patternReplacement (@matchPattern, @replacementPattern)
identsupplies a name which functions as the prefix for an abbreviated pointing scheme such as a private URI scheme. The prefix constitutes the text preceding the first colon.
Status Required
Datatype teidata.prefix
Contained by
header: listPrefixDef
May contain
core: p
linking: ab
Note

The abbreviated pointer may be dereferenced to produce either an absolute or a relative URI reference. In the latter case it is combined with the value of xml:base in force at the place where the pointing attribute occurs to form an absolute URI in the usual manner as prescribed by XML Base.

Note

So that the value of this attribute may be mapped directly to a URI prefix, the value is limited to teidata.prefix.

Example
<prefixDef ident="ref"
 matchPattern="([a-z]+)"
 replacementPattern="../../references/references.xml#$1">
 <p> In the context of this project, private URIs with
     the prefix "ref" point to <gi>div</gi> elements in
     the project's global references.xml file.
  </p>
