Database handle for the object. It is of XML type ID, so is constrained to be unique in the XML document within which it occurs. An external identifier for the object in the form of a URI may be constructed using standard XML and XPointer methods. This is done by concatenating the URI for the document, a fragment separator, and the value of the id attribute.
Reference to an XML Schema fragment that specifies the content model of the propertys value. This is in conformance with the XML Schema Section 4.14 Referencing Schemas from Elsewhere.
The 'actuate' attribute is used to communicate the desired timingof traversal from the starting resource to the ending resource;it's value should be treated as follows:onLoad - traverse to the ending resource immediately on loadingthe starting resourceonRequest - traverse from the starting resource to the endingresource only on a post-loading event triggered forthis purposeother - behavior is unconstrained; examine other markup in linkfor hintsnone - behavior is unconstrained
The 'show' attribute is used to communicate the desired presentationof the ending resource on traversal from the starting resource; it'svalue should be treated as follows:new - load ending resource in a new window, frame, pane, or otherpresentation contextreplace - load the resource in the same window, frame, pane, orother presentation contextembed - load ending resource in place of the presentation of thestarting resourceother - behavior is unconstrained; examine other markup in thelink for hintsnone - behavior is unconstrained
