TEI Tite is a constrained customization of TEI designed for use when outsourcing production of TEI documents to vendors, who use some combination of OCR and keyboarding to produce encoded text. While the canonical version of Tite is maintained by the TEI Council, a derived version is used in the AccessTEI program.
TEI Tite is meant to express a transitional format for documents, not an archival one. A project outsourcing encoding of documents using Tite should convert Tite documents created by vendors into a more suitable format for long-term preservation, such as one of the encoding levels of Best Practices for TEI in Libraries or a project-specific TEI customization.
While Tite includes only a limited set of all of the elements in TEI, it should not be confused with TEI Lite, which also contains a subset of elements. What distinguishes Tite from other TEI customizations is that Tite is meant to prescribe exactly one way of encoding a particular feature of a document in as many cases as possible, ensuring that any two encoders would produce the same XML document for a source document.
This document specifies how a source document should be encoded using TEI Tite. Its organizing model is roughly the structure of a TEI document itself, and it proceeds from high-level features to low, starting with general requirements, text structure, directions on when to group texts, considerations about type of text (genre and format), continuing down to instructions on marking phrase-level features, reference systems, and so forth. In its original ODD (one document does-it-all) format, this document can generate everything necessary for working in TEI Tite: both documentation (this Tite-specific prose as well as the full technical documentation for each of its elements) and schemas in either W3C Schema, RELAX NG, or XML DTD. Software utilities, including the Roma web tool, can generate these.
Tite uses a subset of the TEI's elements, except for a few shortcut elements for the convenience of use by vendors (b, i, ul, sup, sub, smcap, cols and ornament) which can be transformed to normal TEI elements. Tite is also not a TEI-conformant customization since it breaks the TEI Abstract Model by omitting <teiHeader> for encoder convenience. That is, Tite was created primarily by removing elements and attributes from the TEI, and not from extensive modification. As a TEI customization, Tite inherits TEI semantics, and ambiguity in this specification should be resolved with reference to the TEI Guidelines. What makes Tite distinct is that where the TEI in general is famously tolerant of multiple methods of encoding a given feature, Tite seeks uniformity of encoding through constraint, via its stripped-down tag set and via this specification.
Tite can be used to encode printed prose, poetry, drama, newspapers, and anything else which can be described with the basic TEI building-blocks of divisions, paragraphs, line groups, and speeches.
In this documentation, document refers generally to the item (book, pamphlet, newspaper, etc.) to be encoded and text to either linguistic (as opposed to graphic) material or a logically distinct literary unit.
All printed material should be captured: all text (that is, printed characters) should be transcribed and the presence of graphical items or other non-transcribable elements should be indicated with markup.
A distinction should be maintained in the electronic transcription between end-of-line or ‘soft’ hyphens (an artifact of page layout) and ‘hard’ hyphens (a linguistic feature). The former should be transcribed as the SOFT HYPHEN (U+00AD) character; the latter, as the HYPHEN-MINUS (U+002D) character generally available on Western keyboards. In the rare case of coincidence of the two types — where a word that is normally hyphenated is split across a line break at its hyphen — the hyphen should be considered hard, and transcribed as the HYPHEN-MINUS.
Characters should be encoded in UTF-8. For characters not easily input from the keyboard, use hexadecimal numeric entities (e.g. é, the small latin e with acute accent, is represented as é).
The standard for accuracy of transcription should be at least 99.99% (1 error in 10,000 characters). The sample size for verification will be 5% of the total text.
Almost surely, difficult encoding situations will arise whose resolution may not be covered by this documentation or the TEI Guidelines. In such cases, it is important to document the markup choices that are made. To this end each encoded file should be accompanied by a document with such notes. These notes should reference features of a document that seem remarkable to encoders and how these were handled by encoders.
The text's xml:id attribute should contain a unique identifier for the document being encoded.
Tite omits the <teiHeader> element as a convenience to transcribers. This departs from normal TEI practice, which requires <TEI> as the root element, containing <teiHeader> and text elements. In order to bring a document encoded in TEI Tite into adherence with the TEI Abstract Model, projects should add a teiHeader before engaging in post-transcription processing.
In cases where a document appears to contain a group of texts but the above condition is not met, encode each unit as a (numbered) <div> with an appropriate type attribute.
Tite uses numbered divisions: div1 through div7, which stand for levels of nesting within a text. div1s nest inside or are contained by the front, body, and back elements, div2s nest inside or are contained by div1s, etc. The document's table of contents is often a good place to find cues about where structural divisions start and end; other cues can be blank pages, recurring typographical or ornamental features, or a numbering system ("Chapter 5" etc.). Also, the presence of a heading will often indicate the beginning of a division.
The type attribute should be used to express the type of division being marked. Where present, use a name for division type given in the document itself. Though any constrained enumerated list of type values will have to be determined on a job-by-job basis, some examples of appropriate division types are:
When a heading is present, encode it with the head element. If there is more than one heading at the beginning of a given division, encode each heading with its own head element, using the type attribute to distinguish them. Appropriate values are:
A divisional title is a page that resembles a half-title page: it displays the title or heading of a major structural unit on an otherwise blank page. Divisional titles should be encoded not with a separate <div> element, but as a head within the appropriate <div>. For half-title pages and similar fly-title pages see the section on Front Matter.
Another potential false indication of a new structural division is an ornament used as an informal division: a printer's ornament of some sort, a string of asterisks or periods, or a horizontal line. Mark these with the special ornament element. If the ornament is a horizontal line or printer's device or otherwise not transcribable, make the element empty and include an appropriate type attribute (line or ornament); if the ornament is made up of characters, transcribe the characters into the ornament's content.
Front and back matter should be encoded with the front and back elements, respectively. div1 elements should contain the major sections and should be characterized by type attribute values. The exception, however, is the title page, which should be encoded with the titlePage element and its children. The titlePart element should have a type attribute with one of the following values:
<titlePart type="volume"> should be used to encode volume information wherever it is found on the title page, even if it is separated from the other title information. The elements that make up the titlePage content model are: graphic, byline, epigraph, docTitle, titlePart, docAuthor, docEdition, docImprint, docDate, figure, ornament.
Information on the verso of the title page should be included as well (after a pb).
Common items to encode in front and back matter -- and therefore common type attribute values for front and back divisions are:
Half-title and fly-title pages may be encountered in the front matter. A half-title page precedes the title page proper and sometimes includes volume or series information; a fly-title page comes at the very end of the front matter, just before the body. In the case of half-titles, encode these as <div1 type="half-title"> (with titlePart elements as appropriate); in the case of fly-titles, encode them likewise with <div1 type="fly-title">, making sure to make the fly-title division the last part of the front matter (and not the first part of the body, as may seem reasonable as well).
Tite is equipped to support basic encoding of several types of text: in terms of genre, it supports prose, verse, and drama, and in terms of format, it supports books, newspapers, pamphlets, and other similar printed material. Tite has special elements for letters, verse, drama, and newspapers.
opener and closer are elements designed to encode the beginning and ending sections of letters, prefaces, diary entries, or other personal types of writing. Both elements contain:
opener contains the additional elements epigraph, argument, and byline. epigraph will often be useful in the context of a letter. When encoding an epigraph, make sure to encode the content as you would any other feature, marking line groups, bibliographical elements, etc.
argument and byline, however, are not intended specifically for use with letters:
All verse should be encoded within at least one lg element, even when there are no distinct stanzas or when the verse is interspersed with prose. If it is known, use the type attribute to express the type of line group. Sometimes within a poem there is a question about what should be tagged as a lg or as a separate <div>. As a rough rule of thumb, if there is a title accompanying the division, use the <div> element; otherwise, use lg.
AS virtuous men pass mildly away, And whisper to their souls to go, Whilst some of their sad friends do say, "Now his breath goes," and some say, "No."should be encoded as
The standard TEI elements for drama should be used: sp, stage, speaker. If the who attribute is used on sp, also transcribe who is given as the speaker, in whatever form it is written, in the speaker element. Short pieces of stage direction that accompany the speaker designation may be included in the speaker element.
Scenes and acts should be encoded as appropriately nested <div> elements with
type attributes of scene or act, respectively. Cast lists
can likewise be encoded using <div> and type="castlist"
.
Prologues and epilogues can be treated as sps of their own, unless their structure would be better represented by nested <div> elements.
Tite includes the elements cols and cb which are well suited for the multi-column layout of newspapers. Additional relevant elements are: ref, to encode a pointer to the continuation of a story in a different column or on a different page; and figure, to describe illustrations, advertisements, and cartoons.
If present, transcribe all quotation marks or other delimiters inside the q element.
Use the figure element to encode figures. If a figure has a heading or caption, encode it with the head element. If there is associated text, simply use a p to encode it.
Tables and lists are encoded as in the TEI Guidelines, but note the following.
If a cell in a table is a heading or a label, set the role attribute to label; if the cell contains data, there is no need to use role: data is the default. If a cell or row spans more than one column or row, use the rows or cols attributes set to the number of columns or rows that it spans.
If unsure about whether a structure is best encoded as a list or table, record it as a table only if it would not be properly understood without tabular layout.
Lists should be encoded as either sequences of <items> or label-item pairs. When items in the list contain a label, as in a gloss list, be sure to use the latter form.
Both the reference to the note in the running text and the note itself must be encoded. Use ptr or ref to encode the reference. If there is no reference in the text (often the case for marginal notes), supply a ptr element in a reasonable place in the text running beside the note. If there is a reference (number, symbol, etc.), use the ref element and include the reference text as the content. In both cases, a target attribute must be supplied which contains the xml:id value of the associated note.
When encoding the note itself with the note element, the xml:id and place attributes must be supplied. See the TEI documentation for acceptable values for place; the most common will be foot, end, margin-left (-right, -top, -bot).
Transcribe the note directly after it is referenced in the document. In the case of notes without explicit reference (pointed to with ptr), set the anchored attribute to false.
In rare cases where the logical identity of a block-level element is hard to discern, use the TEI element ab (anonymous block) instead of applying a p or <div> element. In these cases, be sure to document this decision in accompanying notes. Applying this element should be viewed as a last resort.
The gap element should be used when for some reason the document being transcribed contains illegible text (smudged, torn, missing, etc.) or something outside the scope of transcription for a given project: characters in an unsupported character set, for instance. gap indicates that something is omitted. When using gap, set the reason attribute to an appropriate value. (See <unclear> below.)
There are six elements in Tite that capture specific typographical features:
These mark the physical change, and are agnostic about a logical motivation for it. There are two exceptions to this approach, however: marking foreign words and titles. In the case of foreign words, use the foreign element; in the case of titles, use the title element only if certain that the word or phrase in question is a title. If a phrase is, say, italicized, but you are uncertain about its being a title, use the i element instead. Foreign words should be marked only if they are typographically distinguished from surrounding text.
In addition, the <handshift> element may be used within the body of a transcription to indicate where a change of hand is detected for whatever reason.
If there is a typographical feature not covered by the above elements, the TEI hi element is still available in Tite. Use it without a rend attribute.
For passages set off by quotation marks or another delimeter, use the q element, including the delimeter inside the tag.
If the alignment of an element seems remarkable, set the element's rend attribute to an appropriate value (normally center, right, left, etc.). However, when semantic already accounts for its cause, description of alignment is not necessary. Headings, for instance, do not need to be marked as being centered.
To indicate level of indentation (often in verse), use numerical ‘arguments’ to ‘indent’, as in indent(1), indent(-1), and so on.
The seg element is the phrase-level analogue to the ab element. If a phrase-level feature seems to be present but its identity is hard to fathom, use this element. This, again, is a last resort.
Alternately, when a passage of text is for some reason too hard to read, use the unclear element, setting the reason attribute to an appropriate value. When using unclear, surround the entire word with the tag if any part of it is unclear (not just the illegible letter, say).
For cases in which it is unknown which character a given glyph corresponds to, mark the glyph with the g element to indicate the uncertainty. By convention in Tite, g represents any unknown glyph; no ref attribute is necessary. Note that unknown glyphs are different from illegible text.
Encode page breaks (pb) at the start of each page, and encode breaks even for blank pages. If the page is numbered, include the page number as the value of the n attribute and, again, no matter where the page number is printed on the page, place the pb element at the ‘top.’
If marking column breaks, follow the same rules as for page breaks. Column breaks are imagined to appear at the top of the column, at the beginning of the column's text. The cols element exists to record a change in columnar layout. If such a change occurs, mark the beginning of the new layout with cols and supply the new number of columns as the value for the n attribute.
If line breaks are to be captured, use the lb element.
The Best Practices for TEI in Libraries ("BP") creates common definitions of ‘levels of encoding’ based on depth of markup applied. Because the levels of encoding provide a tremendously useful common set of terms, it's helpful to situate TEI Tite according to them.
Mapped to BP levels, TEI Tite would sit between Level 3 and Level 4: it requires use of all the elements from Level 3 plus additional ones, but requires fewer elements than Level 4. Relative to Level 3, ‘Simple Analysis,’ Tite
The most useful comparison for Tite is to Level 4 (‘Basic Content Analysis’), provides the most useful comparison. The folowing items represent instances where Tite is less ambitious than Level 4:
Bringing Tite-encoded documents up to BP Level 4 would simply require application of additional markup, not significant reworking of markup, and in that way Tite is compatible with the BP.
Do also keep in mind that Tite lacks both the <teiHeader> and root <TEI> element used in TEI-conformant documents.

Example | <del rend="overstrike"> <gap reason="illegible" quantity="5" unit="character"/> </del> |
Note | Degrees of uncertainty over what can still be read, or whether a deletion was intended may be indicated by use of the <certainty> element (see 21. ). This element should be used for deletion of shorter sequences of text, typically single words or phrases. The <delSpan> element should be used for longer sequences of text, for those containing structural subdivisions, and for those containing overlapping additions and deletions. The text deleted must be at least partially legible in order for the encoder to be able to transcribe it (unless it is restored in a <supplied> tag). Illegible or lost text within a deletion may be marked using the gap tag to signal that text is present but has not been transcribed, or is no longer visible. Attributes on the gap element may be used to indicate how much text is omitted, the reason for omitting it, etc. If text is not fully legible, the unclear element (available when using the additional tagset for transcription of primary sources) should be used to signal the areas of text which cannot be read with confidence in a similar way. There is a clear distinction in the TEI between del, which is a statement of the the or a later scribe's intent to cancel or remove text, and elements such as gap or unclear which signal the editor's decision to omit or inability to read the text remaining. See further sections 11.3.1.7. and, for the close association of the del tag with the gap, <damage>, unclear and <supplied> elements (the latter three tags available when using the additional tagset for transcription of primary sources), 11.3.3.2. . The del tag should not be used for deletions made by editors or encoders. In these cases, either <corr>, <surplus> or gap should be used. |
<desc> (description) contains a brief description of the object documented by its parent element, including its intended usage, purpose, or application where this is appropriate. [22.4.4. 22.4.5. 22.4.6. 22.4.7. ] | |

Declaration | element head { att.global.attributes, att.typed.attributes, ( text | lg | model.gLike | model.phrase | model.inter | model.lLike | model.global )* } |
Example | The most common use for the head element is to mark the headings of sections. In older writings, the headings or incipits may be rather longer than usual in modern works. If a section has an explicit ending as well as a heading, it should be marked as a <trailer>, as in this example: <div1 n="I" type="book"> <head>In the name of Christ here begins the first book of the ecclesiastical history of Georgius Florentinus, known as Gregory, Bishop of Tours.</head> <div2 type="section"> <head>In the name of Christ here begins Book I of the history.</head> <p>Proposing as I do ...</p> <p>From the Passion of our Lord until the death of Saint Martin four hundred and twelve years passed.</p> <trailer>Here ends the first Book, which covers five thousand, five hundred and ninety-six years from the beginning of the world down to the death of Saint Martin.</trailer> </div2> </div1> |
Example | The head element is also used to mark headings of other units, such as lists: With a few exceptions, connectives are equally useful in all kinds of discourse: description, narration, exposition, argument. <list type="simple"> <head>Connectives</head> <item>above</item> <item>accordingly</item> <item>across from</item> <item>adjacent to</item> <item>again</item> <item/> </list> |
Note | The head element is used for headings at all levels; software which treats (e.g.) chapter headings, section headings, and list titles differently must determine the proper processing of a head element based on its structural position. A head occurring as the first element of a list is the title of that list; one occurring as the first element of a div1 is the title of that chapter or section. |

Note | May contain simple prose or a sequence of chunks. Whatever string of characters is used to label a list item in the copy text may be used as the value of the global n attribute, but it is not required that numbering be recorded explicitly. In ordered lists, the n attribute on the item element is by definition synonymous with the use of the label element to record the enumerator of the list item. In glossary lists, however, the term being defined should be given with the label element, not n. |

Declaration | element label { att.global.attributes, att.typed.attributes, macro.phraseSeq } |
Example | Labels are commonly used for the headwords in glossary lists; note the use of the global xml:lang attribute to set the default language of the glossary list to Middle English, and identify the glosses and headings as modern English or Latin: <list type="gloss" xml:lang="enm"> <head xml:lang="en">Vocabulary</head> <headLabel xml:lang="en">Middle English</headLabel> <headItem xml:lang="en">New English</headItem> <label>nu</label> <item xml:lang="en">now</item> <label>lhude</label> <item xml:lang="en">loudly</item> <label>bloweth</label> <item xml:lang="en">blooms</item> <label>med</label> <item xml:lang="en">meadow</item> <label>wude</label> <item xml:lang="en">wood</item> <label>awe</label> <item xml:lang="en">ewe</item> <label>lhouth</label> <item xml:lang="en">lows</item> <label>sterteth</label> <item xml:lang="en">bounds, frisks (cf. <cit> <ref>Chaucer, K.T.644</ref> <quote>a courser, <term>sterting</term>as the fyr</quote> </cit> </item> <label>verteth</label> <item xml:lang="la">pedit</item> <label>murie</label> <item xml:lang="en">merrily</item> <label>swik</label> <item xml:lang="en">cease</item> <label>naver</label> <item xml:lang="en">never</item> </list> |
Example | Labels may also be used to record explicitly the numbers or letters which mark list items in ordered lists, as in this extract from Gibbon's Autobiography. In this usage the label element is synonymous with the n attribute on the item element: I will add two facts, which have seldom occurred in the composition of six, or at least of five quartos. <list rend="runon" type="ordered"> <label>(1)</label> <item>My first rough manuscript, without any intermediate copy, has been sent to the press.</item> <label>(2) </label> <item>Not a sheet has been seen by any human eyes, excepting those of the author and the printer: the faults and the merits are exclusively my own.</item> </list> |
Example | Labels may also be used for other structured list items, as in this extract from the journal of Edward Gibbon: <list type="gloss"> <label>March 1757.</label> <item>I wrote some critical observations upon Plautus.</item> <label>March 8th.</label> <item>I wrote a long dissertation upon some lines of Virgil.</item> <label>June.</label> <item>I saw Mademoiselle Curchod — <quote xml:lang="la">Omnia vincit amor, et nos cedamus amori.</quote> </item> <label>August.</label> <item>I went to Crassy, and staid two days.</item> </list> Note that the label might also appear within the item rather than as its sibling. Though syntactically valid, this usage is not recommended TEI practice. |
Example | Labels may also be used to represent a label or heading attached to a paragraph or sequence of paragraphs not treated as a structural division, or to a group of verse lines. Note that, in this case, the label element appears within the p or lg element, rather than as a preceding sibling of it. <p>[...] <lb/>& n’entrer en mauuais & mal-heu- <lb/>ré meſnage. Or des que le conſente- <lb/>ment des parties y eſt le mariage eſt <lb/> arreſté, quoy que de faict il ne ſoit <label place="margin">Puiſſance maritale entre les Romains.</label> <lb/> conſommé. Depuis la conſomma- <lb/>tion du mariage la femme eſt ſoubs <lb/> la puiſſance du mary, s’il n’eſt eſcla- <lb/>ue ou enfant de famille : car en ce <lb/> cas, la femme, qui a eſpouſé vn en- <lb/>fant de famille, eſt ſous la puiſſance [...]</p> <p>In this example the text of the label appears in the right hand margin of the original source, next to the paragraph it describes, but approximately in the middle of it. </p> <p>If so desired the <gi>type</gi> attribute may be used to distinguish different categories of label.</p> |

Example | This example encodes typographical line breaks as a means of preserving the visual appearance of a title page. The break attribute is used to show that the line break does not (as elsewhere) mark the start of a new word. <titlePart rend="italic"> <lb/>L'auteur susdict supplie les Lecteurs <lb/>benevoles, soy reserver à rire au soi-<lb break="no"/>xante & dixhuytiesme livre. </titlePart> |
Note | By convention, lb elements should appear at the point in the text where a new line starts. The n attribute, if used, indicates the number or other value associated with the text between this point and the next lb element, typically the sequence number of the line within the page, or other appropriate unit. This element is intended to be used for marking actual line breaks on a manuscript or printed page, at the point where they occur; it should not be used to tag structural units such as lines of verse (for which the l element is available) except in circumstances where structural units cannot otherwise be marked. The type attribute may be used to characterize the line break in any respect. The more specialized attributes break, ed, or edRef should be preferred when the intent is to indicate whether or not the line break is word-breaking, or to note the source from which it derives. |

And yet it is not only
in the great line of Italian renaissance art, but even in the painterly <note place="bottom" type="gloss" resp="#MDMH"> <term xml:lang="de">Malerisch</term>. This word has, in the German, two distinct meanings, one objective, a quality residing in the object, the other subjective, a mode of apprehension and creation. To avoid confusion, they have been distinguished in English as <mentioned>picturesque</mentioned> and <mentioned>painterly</mentioned> respectively. </note> style of the Dutch genre painters of the seventeenth century that drapery has this psychological significance. For this example to be valid, the code MDMH must be defined elsewhere, for example by means of a responsibility statement in the associated TEI Header: <respStmt xml:id="MDMH"> <resp>translation from German to English</resp> <name>Hottinger, Marie Donald Mackie</name> </respStmt> |
Example | The global n attribute may be used to supply the symbol or number used to mark the note's point of attachment in the source text, as in the following example: Mevorakh b. Saadya's mother, the matriarch of the family during the second half of the eleventh century, <note n="126" anchored="true"> The alleged mention of Judah Nagid's mother in a letter from 1071 is, in fact, a reference to Judah's children; cf. above, nn. 111 and 54. </note> is well known from Geniza documents published by Jacob Mann. However, if notes are numbered in sequence and their numbering can be reconstructed automatically by processing software, it may well be considered unnecessary to record the note numbers. |

Note | Attributes using this datatype must contain a word which follows the rules defining a legal XML name (see http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#dt-name): for example they cannot include whitespace or begin with digits. Typically, the list of documented possibilities will be provided (or exemplified) by a value list in the associated attribute specification, expressed with a <valList> element. |
data.language defines the range of attribute values used to identify a particular combination of human language and writing system. [6.1. ] | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | data.language = xsd:language |
Note | The values for this attribute are language ‘tags’ as defined in BCP 47. Currently BCP 47 comprises RFC 4646 and RFC 4647; over time, other IETF documents may succeed these as the best current practice. A ‘language tag’, per BCP 47, is assembled from a sequence of components or subtags separated by the hyphen character (-, U+002D). The tag is made of the following subtags, in the following order. Every subtag except the first is optional. If present, each occurs only once, except the fourth and fifth components (variant and extension), which are repeatable.
There are two exceptions to the above format. First, there are language tags in the IANA registry that do not match the above syntax, but are present because they have been ‘grandfathered’ from previous specifications. Second, an entire language tag can consist of only a private use subtag. These tags start

data.numeric defines the range of attribute values used for numeric values. | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | data.numeric = xsd:double | token { pattern = "(\-?[\d]+/\-?[\d]+)" } | xsd:decimal |
Note | Any numeric value, represented as a decimal number, in floating point format, or as a ratio. To represent a floating point number, expressed in scientific notation, ‘E notation’, a variant of ‘exponential notation’, may be used. In this format, the value is expressed as two numbers separated by the letter E. The first number, the significand (sometimes called the mantissa) is given in decimal format, while the second is an integer. The value is obtained by multiplying the mantissa by 10 the number of times indicated by the integer. Thus the value represented in decimal notation as 1000.0 might be represented in scientific notation as 10E3. A value expressed as a ratio is represented by two integer values separated by a solidus (/) character. Thus, the value represented in decimal notation as 0.5 might be represented as a ratio by the string 1/2. |

Note | These values map directly onto the values used by XSL-FO and CSS. For definitions of the units see those specifications; at the time of this writing the most complete list is in the CSS3 working draft. |
data.pointer defines the range of attribute values used to provide a single URI pointer to any other resource, either within the current document or elsewhere. | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | Element:
|
Declaration | data.pointer = xsd:anyURI |
Note | The range of syntactically valid values is defined by
RFC 3986
Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic
Syntax. Note that the values themselves are encoded using
RFC
3987 Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) mapping
to URIs. For example, |
data.temporal.w3c defines the range of attribute values expressing a temporal expression such as a date, a time, or a combination of them, that conform to the W3C XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes specification. | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | Element:
|
Declaration | data.temporal.w3c = xsd:date | xsd:gYear | xsd:gMonth | xsd:gDay | xsd:gYearMonth | xsd:gMonthDay | xsd:time | xsd:dateTime |
Note | If it is likely that the value used is to be compared with another, then a time zone indicator should always be included, and only the dateTime representation should be used. |
data.text defines the range of attribute values used to express some kind of identifying string as a single sequence of unicode characters possibly including whitespace. | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | data.text = string |
Note | Attributes using this datatype must contain a single ‘token’ in which whitespace and other punctuation characters are permitted. |
data.truthValue defines the range of attribute values used to express a truth value. | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | data.truthValue = xsd:boolean |
Note | The possible values of this datatype are 1 or true, or 0 or false. |
Note | This datatype applies only for cases where uncertainty is inappropriate; if the attribute concerned may have a value other than true or false, e.g. unknown, or inapplicable, it should have the extended version of this datatype: data.xTruthValue. |
data.word defines the range of attribute values expressed as a single word or token. | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | data.word = token { pattern = "(\p{L}|\p{N}|\p{P}|\p{S})+" } |
Note | Attributes using this datatype must contain a single ‘word’ which contains only letters, digits, punctuation characters, or symbols: thus it cannot include whitespace. |
macro.limitedContent (paragraph content) defines the content of prose elements that are not used for transcription of extant materials. [1.3. ] | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | macro.limitedContent = ( text | model.limitedPhrase | model.inter )* |
macro.paraContent (paragraph content) defines the content of paragraphs and similar elements. [1.3. ] | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | macro.paraContent = ( text | model.gLike | model.phrase | model.inter | model.global | lg )* |
macro.phraseSeq (phrase sequence) defines a sequence of character data and phrase-level elements. [1.4.1. ] | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | macro.phraseSeq = ( text | model.gLike | model.phrase | model.global )* |
macro.phraseSeq.limited (limited phrase sequence) defines a sequence of character data and those phrase-level elements that are not typically used for transcribing extant documents. [1.4.1. ] | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | macro.phraseSeq.limited = ( text | model.limitedPhrase | model.global )* |
macro.specialPara ('special' paragraph content) defines the content model of elements such as notes or list items, which either contain a series of component-level elements or else have the same structure as a paragraph, containing a series of phrase-level and inter-level elements. [1.3. ] | |
Module | tei — Formal specification |
Used by | |
Declaration | macro.specialPara = ( text | model.gLike | model.phrase | model.inter | model.divPart | model.global )* |
