revprop

Identifies a value in the rev attribute that should be flagged in some manner. Unlike the other conditional processing attributes, which can be used for both filtering and flagging, the rev attribute can only be used for flagging. There can be at most one occurrence of a "revprop" element for each attribute value specification (to avoid conflicting actions for the same attribute value).

The default alternate text for revprop start of change is a localized translation of "Start of change". The default alternate text for revprop end of change is a localized translation of "End of change".

Attributes

Name Description Data Type Default Value Required?
val The value to be acted upon. If the val attribute is absent, then the revprop element declares a default behavior for any value in the rev attribute. CDATA #IMPLIED no
action The action to be taken. The options are:
include
Include the content in output without flags. This is the default behavior unless otherwise set.
passthrough
Include the content in output, and preserve the attribute value as part of the output stream for further processing by a runtime engine, for example runtime filtering based on individual user settings. The value should be preserved in whatever syntax is required by the target runtime. Values that are not explicitly passed through should be removed from the output stream, even though the content is still included.
flag
Include and flag the content on output (if the content has not been excluded).
(include | passthrough | flag) #IMPLIED yes
changebar When flag has been set, specify a changebar color, style, or character, according to the changebar support of the target output format. If flag has not been set this attribute is ignored. CDATA #IMPLIED no
color If flag has been set, the color to use to flag text. Colors may be entered by name or code. Processor support is recommended for the color names listed in http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice5.html#section-N8794-Property-Datatypes and for the 6 digit hex code form (#rrggbb, case insensitive). If flag has not been set this attribute is ignored. CDATA #IMPLIED no
backcolor If flag has been set, the color to use as background for flagged text. Colors may be entered by name or code. Processor support is recommended for the color names listed in http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice5.html#section-N8794-Property-Datatypes and for the 6 digit hex code form (#rrggbb, case insensitive). If flag has not been set this attribute is ignored. CDATA #IMPLIED no
style If flag has been set, the text style to use for flagged text. The following values are enumerated:
  • underline
  • double-underline
  • italics
  • overline
  • bold
If flag has not been set this attribute is ignored.
(underline | double-underline | italics | overline | bold) #IMPLIED no
