  • 1.  Use of the term "pseudo-topic"

    Posted 11-23-2021 15:53
    The following is the definition of the navigation token for @title-role. It appears in the <titlealt> topic. Specifies that the content of the <titlealt> element contains the title for use in tables of content and other navigation aids. In some cases, when processing a <titlealt> that has no @href , this also is used as the title of the generated pseudo-topic, if applicable. If not present, this role is fulfilled by the linking role. Can we come up with wording that does not include pseudo-top ? If not, how should we define pseudo-topic ? -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee OASIS Distinguished Contributor Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting LLC www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

    Wouldn't just "generated topic" be sufficient? I don't think we need pseudo- at all.   --Scott   From: dita@lists.oasis-open.org <dita@lists.oasis-open.org> on behalf of Kristen James Eberlein <kris@eberleinconsulting.com> Date: Tuesday, November 23, 2021 at 8:53 AM To: DITA TC <dita@lists.oasis-open.org> Subject: [dita] Use of the term "pseudo-topic" [External Email]   The following is the definition of the navigation token for @title-role.
