Remarks

This page details the standard attributes that may appear on any XCST element. The above example defines a non-existent element c:example-element.

These attributes may also appear on a literal result element, but in this case, to distinguish them from user-defined attributes, the names of the attributes are in the XCST namespace. They are thus typically written as c:extension-element-prefixes, c:expand-text, c:transform-text, etc.

Because these attributes may appear on any XCST element, they are not listed in the syntax summary of each individual element.

The [c:]extension-element-prefixes Attribute

The effect of the [c:]extension-element-prefixes attribute is described in Extension Instructions.

The [c:]transform-text Attribute

The effect of the [c:]transform-text attribute is described in Text Transformation.
