Attributes

QName Type Fixed Default Use Inheritable Annotation
class string optional 
An open placeholder for categorization.
end-date string optional 
When the event is set to end. Date/time value normalized to ISO 8601: YYYYMMDDTHHMMSS-HHMM (preferred) YYYYMMDDTHHMMSSZ (alternative). Use YYYYMMDD000000-HHMM when no time is available
id ID optional 
An XML-specific identifier for the element.
idsrc string optional 
The source (taxonomy) for the element's value attribute.
start-date string optional 
When the event is set to start. Date/time value normalized to ISO 8601: YYYYMMDDTHHMMSS-HHMM (preferred) YYYYMMDDTHHMMSSZ (alternative). Use YYYYMMDD000000-HHMM when no time is available
style string optional 
An open placeholder for reference by an external stylesheet.
value string optional 
The code or symbol for the element.
xml:lang union of(xs:language, restriction of xs:string) optional 
Attempting to install the relevant ISO 2- and 3-letter
         codes as the enumerated possible values is probably never
         going to be a realistic possibility.  See
         RFC 3066 at http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3066.txt and the IANA registry
         at http://www.iana.org/assignments/lang-tag-apps.htm for
         further information.

         The union allows for the 'un-declaration' of xml:lang with
         the empty string.
Wildcard: ANY attribute from ANY namespace OTHER than 'http://iptc.org/std/NITF/2006-10-18/'
