    Hi Yoshito, The spec does not provide an easy way to put links in notes. Inline tags are not supported in <note> so the only (and ugly) way would be to use escaped HTML like in your example.  I would prefer to allow using the source attribute in <note>, as used in the <gls:term> or <gls:translation> elements from the Glossary module.

In XLIFF 2.1 specification, <note> element can have optional format style attributes fs:fs ad fs:subFs. And the format style attributes from HTML including many inline elements. However, I have no idea how we can use them in <note>.   For example, if you want HTML fragment:     Please check <a href= >the screen capture</a>.   as <note> value, I may put fs:fs attribute like <notes fs:fs= html >, but it looks there is no way to represent inline <a> element in this case.   If this is a part of <source> or <target>, I understand it can be represented as below:     <source>Please check <pc id= 1 fs:fs= a fs:subFs= href, http://foo.com/123.jpg >the screen capture</pc>.   But, I don't think <pc> is allowed in <note> value If my understanding is correct.   Of course, if we put <a> tag as &lt;a> in <note> body, it is valid, but I suspect this is what the spec suggests.     <notes>     <note fs:fs= html >Please check &lt;a href= >the screen capture&lt;/a>.</note>   </notes>   Above should be valid, but I think this is not what XLIFF spec author thought about. Do I misunderstand the specification? If not, what is the typical use case for fs:fs/fs:SubFs attribute in <note> element?   Thanks, Yoshito
