This informative document expands upon the Digital Talking Book XML Document Type Definition Implementing the ANSI/NISO Digital Talking Book V1.1.0 Document. See [DTBOOKV110DTD]
The Digital Talking Book Document Type Definition (DTD) provides the means to mark up the text of a document to permit support for the combination of professional narration and navigation into that narration. It also facilitates the output of a document's content in a variety of accessible formats. The markup tags in the book convey its content in structure, and contain some metadata about the book content and its structure.
The Document Type Definition names and defines the allowable element types, their allowable content, and their attributes. Correct markup of the text of the book permits the textual material to be synchronized using SMIL [SMIL2.0] files with the professionally narrated version of that book. The synchronization can permit concurrent display of the text being narrated. The textual content can be searched in context to locate material desired for narration.
The source DTD from which this document has been generated is dtbook110.dtd. See [DTBOOKV110DTD].

The DAISY (Digital Audio-based Information SYstem) Consortium contributed substantially to the development of this DTD. This application of XML is the next generation after several DAISY versions of 2.X specifications, see [DAISY202].
The DAISY Statement of Principles for the Creation and Production of Accessible Books and Materials [DAISY-2-GUIDELINES] represents the minimum standard to be met by Libraries of the Blind and producers of alternative format materials.
Its Navigation Control Center (NCC) provided for synchronizing document structure with narration.
The NCC evolved into an XML application called the "Navigation Control File for XML applications" (NCX). Its content is derived from the markup of documents tagged using the dtbook DTD. Richer structuring capability is one of the objectives of that DTD. The Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language [SMIL2.0] is used to provide synchronized narrations and text. The NCX provides navigation using the identified elements of documents tagged to this DTD.
The dtbook DTD includes many, but not all, of the element types found in both the [HTML401STRICT] and [XHTML11STRICT] strict DTDs. HTML authoring tools permit those additional element tags, and may ignore the additional tags that are dtbook-specific. The lowercase names from XHTML are used, rather than the uppercase names from HTML.
Go to the Table of Contents.
Dtbook110 has 79 element types. It shares 47 element types with the HTML4.0 Strict DTD [HTML401STRICT] (as adjusted to use the lower-case names consonant with the XHTML Strict DTD [XHTML11STRICT]). It omits 30 element types from them, and has 32 unique element types.
Endtag markup is sometimes optional in HTML. It is required for use with xhtml and dtbook. Any XML application [XML12] requires endtags, or their abbreviated form for empty elements, such as "<br />". The benefit of including endtags is that the tagged document has dependable structure that can be validated against the dtbook dtd.
Some tools available for browsing HTML may be used with dtbook material, at the expense of their discarding or ignoring some specific tagging and attributes that are not part of HTML 4.0. A CSS-based stylesheet [CSS1] or [CSS2] that identifies the presentation expectations for the HTML and non-HTML tags, or a filter to map those tags onto suitable HTML tags can provide appropriate visual presentation.
Go to the Table of Contents.
A Digital Talking Book document is an XML application. Therefore, it must begin with the XML processing instruction, followed by the DOCTYPE declaration.
The XML Processing Instruction identifies the version of XML, and the optional character set encoding for the document:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
Go to the Table of Contents.
The character set in which the document is encoded is identified by one of a number of strings. All XML applications are expected to be able to recognize the UNICODE/ISO/IEC 10646 encodings "UTF-8" and "UTF-16" [ISO10646].
Some alternative encodings to "UTF-8" (or "ISO-10646-UCS-2") or "UTF-16" (or "ISO-10646-UCS-4") may be used. These include "ISO-8859-1", "ISO-8859-2", ... "ISO-8859-9" for parts of ISO 8859. See [ISO8859]. Note that US-ASCII (i.e. encoding all characters over decimal 127, e.g. from 128 to 255, as nnn;) is conformant with UTF-8 (and ISO-8859-1, HTTP's default header encoding.)
Also, the values "ISO-2022-JP", "Shift_JIS", or "EUC-JP" can be used for various Japanese encoded forms of JIS X-0208-1997. See [JIS].
The Unicode characters may be represented as their code points, using the form hHHHH; where HHHH is a hexadecimal value formed from the digits 0-9 and letters A-F. Any initial H with value "0" may be elided.
Go to the Table of Contents.
The document type declaration, the DOCTYPE, follows. It has several forms. The simpler form assumes that the proper version of the dtbook DTD is in the same directory as the dtbook file itself.
<!DOCTYPE dtbook SYSTEM
"dtbook110.dtd">
A more general form provides the PUBLIC URI from which the SYSTEM filename can be substituted, should that system copy be missing:
<!DOCTYPE dtbook PUBLIC
"http://www.loc.gov/nls/z3986/v100/dtbook110.dtd"
"dtbook110.dtd">
That assumes the URI can be reached, which may not be true for portable dtbook players.
The still more general form recommended for xml applications [XML12] is:
<!DOCTYPE dtbook PUBLIC
"-//NISO//DTD dtbook v1.1.0//EN"
"dtbook110.dtd">
where the Formal Public Identifier (FPI) on the second line is converted to the URI where it may be publicly found:
http://www.loc.gov/nls/z3986/v100/dtbook110.dtd
The [OASIS-TR9401] Entity Management Catalog provides an indirect means to provide that mapping from FPI to the dtd.
That catalog is more generally useful to provide the mapping from any external entity names (such as modules) to URIs where they may be found.
Note that the reference above is to a particular version of the DTD, distinguished by the "v110".
Go to the Table of Contents.
A Digital Talking Book document is tagged to the dtbook XML application. Its MIME media-type is "text/xml". The tagged book filename should have suffix ".xml". See [RFC2045].
Go to the Table of Contents.
The element types comprising the dtbook DTD provide the syntactic elements from which the logical structure and content of the book is identified. In this section are the following subsections:
The element declarations are grouped in logical order in the dtbook.dtd. Each group contains related element types. This order is basically top-down, starting with the dtbook
root element. Several groups show order or hierarchy. Others show alternatives. The detailed descriptions that follow retain that order.

Go to the Table of Contents.
The element types in the dtbook DTD provide the means to distinguish among the semantic uses of the various kinds of book content.
The element names are hyperlinked to their corresponding detailed descriptions.
Further information about the element types that come from the [HTML401STRICT] application (possibly qualified) is available from that resource.
The other element types are added for dtbook.
Element | Description |
---|---|
a |
contains an anchor, which is used to reference another location, within the same or another <dtbook>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
abbr |
designates an abbreviation, a shortened form of a word. For examples: Mr., approx., lbs., rec'd. Contrast with <acronym>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
acronym |
marks a word formed from key letters (usually initials) of a group of words. For examples: UNESCO, NATO, XML, US. Contrast with <abbr>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
address |
contains a location at which a person or agency may be contacted. By use of <line> to contain content of the individual lines, the class attribute can be used to identify the content of that <line>. For example, class values might include: name, address, region (state. province, etc.), country, location code (such as zipcode, provincial code), phone, fax, email, etc. [XHTML11STRICT] |
annoref |
marks a text segment that references an <annotation>. Each <annoref> is usually a word, phrase, or whole line that is part of the surrounding text (identified in the original print book by bolding, italics, etc.). It should not normally be allowed to be turned off in a DTB application. |
annotation |
is a comment on or explanation of a portion of a printed book. It differs from <note> in that an <annotation> is usually set in the margin or on a facing page, often with no explicit reference to it inserted in the text. Any local reference to <annotation id="xxx"> is by <annoref idref="#xxx">. |
author |
identifies the writer of a work other than this one. Contrast with <docauthor>, which identifies the author of this work. <author> typically occurs within <blockquote> or <cite>. |
bdo |
is used in special cases where the automatic actions of the bi-directional algorithm would result in incorrect display. [XHTML11STRICT] |
blockquote |
indicates a block of quoted content that is set off from the surrounding text by paragraph breaks. Compare with <q>, which marks short, inline quotations. [XHTML11STRICT] |
bodymatter |
consists of the text proper of a book, as contrasted with preliminary material <frontmatter> or supplementary information in <rearmatter>. |
book |
surrounds the actual content of the document, which is divided into <frontmatter>, <bodymatter>, and <rearmatter>. <head>, which contains metadata, precedes <book>. |
br |
marks a forced line break. [XHTML11STRICT] |
caption |
describes a <table> or <img>. If used with <table> it must follow immediately after the <table> start tag. If used with <img> or <imggroup> it is not so constrained. [XHTML11STRICT] |
cite |
marks a reference (or citation) to another document. [XHTML11STRICT] |
code |
designates a fragment of computer code. [XHTML11STRICT] |
col |
elements define the alignment properties for cells in one or more columns. [XHTML11STRICT] |
colgroup |
groups adjacent columns <col> that are semantically related. [XHTML11STRICT] |
dd |
marks a definition of the preceding term <dt> within a definition list <dl>. A definition without a preceding <dt> has no semantic interpretation, but is visually presented aligned with other <dd>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
dfn |
marks the first occurrence of a word or term that is defined or explained there or elsewhere in <book>. Often <dfn> is rendered in italics, sometimes in parentheses. [XHTML11STRICT] |
div |
is a generic container for subdivisions of a book. The <level1> ... <level6> hierarchy, or the <level> tag used recursively, should mark the major hierarchical structures of a book, while <div> is used in less formal circumstances or when for production purposes it is desired that a structure should be treated differently. Compare with <span>, which is used in inline settings. [XHTML11STRICT] |
dl |
contains a definition list, usually consisting of pairs of terms <dt> and definitions <dd>. Any definition can contain another definition list. [XHTML11STRICT] |
docauthor |
marks each author or editor of this work. Compare with <author>, used to mark the author of another work, within <blockquote> or <cite>. |
doctitle |
marks the title of the book within <frontmatter>. By convention <doctitle> should appear only once. Contrast with <title>, which occurs as metadata in <head> and whose content is generally the same. |
dt |
marks a term in a definition list <dl> for which a definition <dd> follows. [XHTML11STRICT] |
dtbook |
is the root element in the Digital Talking Book DTD. <dtbook> contains metadata in <head> and the contents itself in <book>. |
em |
indicates emphasis. Usually <em> is rendered in italics. Compare with <strong>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
frontmatter |
usually contains <doctitle> and <docauthor>, as well as preliminary material that is often enclosed in appropriate <level> or <level1>. Content may include copyright notice, foreword, acknowledgments, table of contents, etc. <frontmatter> serves as a guide to the content and nature of a <book>. |
h1 |
contains the text of the heading for a <level1> structure. [XHTML11STRICT] but nested |
h2 |
contains the text of the heading for a <level2> structure. [XHTML11STRICT] but nested |
h3 |
contains the text of the heading for a <level3> structure. [XHTML11STRICT] but nested |
h4 |
contains the text of the heading for a <level4> structure. [XHTML11STRICT] but nested |
h5 |
contains the text of the heading for a <level5> structure. [XHTML11STRICT] but nested |
h6 |
contains the text of the heading for a <level6> structure. [XHTML11STRICT] but nested |
hd |
marks the text of a heading in a <list> or <sidebar>. |
head |
contains metainformation about the book but no actual content of the book itself, which is placed in <book>. This information is consonant with the <head> information in xhtml, see [XHTML11STRICT]. Other miscellaneous elements can occur before and after the required <title>. By convention <title> should occur first. [XHTML11STRICT] |
hr |
is an empty element, minimally <hr />, indicating a horizontal rule. It may be used to indicate a break in the text where only blank lines, a row of asterisks, a horizontal line, etc. are used in the print book. [XHTML11STRICT] |
img |
marks a visual image. An <img> will always contain an alt and generally contain a longdesc, a pointer to a related <prodnote>. The <img> may be referenced by a <caption> or <prodnote>, using, for example, the form <caption imgref="#yyy">the Caption</caption> for the <img id="yyy">. [XHTML11STRICT] |
imggroup |
provides a container for one or more <img> and associated <caption>(s) and <prodnote>(s). A <prodnote> may contain a description of the image. The content model allows: 1) multiple <img> if they share a caption, with the ids of each <img> in the <caption imgref="id1 id2 ...">, 2) multiple <caption> if several captions refer to a single <img id="xxx"> where each caption has the same <caption imgref="xxx">, 3) multiple <prodnote> if different versions are needed for different media (e.g., large print, braille, or print). If several <prodnote> refer to a single <img id="xxx">, each prodnote has the same <prodnote imgref="xxx">. |
kbd |
designates information that the reader is to input directly into a computer using the keyboard. [XHTML11STRICT] |
level |
is an alternative tag for marking the major structures in a book. It may be used recursively, i.e., repeated indefinitely with each successive occurrence nesting within the previous. It may also be included in a subsequent higher level. Subordinate levels have greater depth. Contrast with the explicit <level1>...<level6> elements, which may not be intermixed with <level>. |
level1 |
is the highest-level container of major divisions of a book. Used in <frontmatter>, <bodymatter>, and <rearmatter> to mark the largest divisions of the book (usually parts or chapters), inside which level2 subdivisions (often sections) may nest. The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., part, chapter) of the structure it marks. Contrast with <level>. |
level2 |
contains subdivisions that nest within <level1> divisions. The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., subpart, chapter, subsection) of the structure it marks. |
level3 |
contains sub-subdivisions that nest within <level2> subdivisions (e.g., sub-subsections within subsections). The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., section, subpart, subsubsection) of the subordinate structure it marks. |
level4 |
contains further subdivisions that nest within <level3> subdivisions. The class attribute identifies the actual name of the subordinate structure it marks. |
level5 |
contains further subdivisions that nest within <level4> subdivisions. The class attribute identifies the actual name of the subordinate structure it marks. |
level6 |
contains further subdivisions that nest within <level5> subdivisions. The class attribute identifies the actual name of the subordinate structure it marks. |
levelhd |
contains the text of a heading within <level>. Corresponds to <h1> through <h6> used in <level1> through <level6>. |
li |
marks each list item in a <list>. <li> content may be either inline or block and may include other nested lists. Alternatively it may contain a sequence of list item components, <lic>, that identify regularly occurring content, such as the heading and page number of each entry in a table of contents. [XHTML11STRICT] |
lic |
("list item component") allows ordered substructure within a list item <li>. Used when a list item is made up of two or more components, as in a table of contents entry. The same number of <lic> should occur in each <li>. If not, correspondence of <lic> in different <li> is in order of occurrence for the current writing direction of the <li>. |
line |
marks a single logical line of text. Often used in conjunction with <linenum> in documents with numbered lines. |
linenum |
contains a line number, for example in legal text. |
link |
is an empty element appearing in the <head> section of a document that establishes a connection between the current document and another document. The <link> element conveys relationship information (for example, "next" and "previous") that may be rendered by user agents in a variety of ways. [XHTML11STRICT] |
list |
contains some form of list, ordered or unordered. The list may have intermixed heading <hd> (generally only one, possibly with <prodnote>) and an intermixture of list items <li> and <pagenum>. If bullets and outline enumerations are part of the print content, they are expected to prefix those list items in content, rather than be implicitly generated. Note: XHTML has explicitly distinguished list element types: ol for ordered, and ul for unordered. |
meta |
indicates metadata about the book. It is an empty element that may appear repeatedly only in <head>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
note |
marks a footnote, endnote, etc. Any local reference to <note id="yyy"> is by <noteref idref="#yyy">. |
noteref |
marks one or more characters that reference a footnote or endnote <note>. Contrast with <annoref>. <noteref> and <note> are independently skippable. |
notice |
contains a warning, caution, or other type of admonition normally found in the margin of a book. In contrast with <sidebar> a <notice> must be presented at a specific location within the text. Its presentation is not optional. |
p |
contains a paragraph, which may contain subsidiary <list> or <dl>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
pagenum |
contains one page number as it appears from the print document, usually inserted at the point within the file immediately preceding the first item of content on a new page. |
prodnote |
contains language added to the alternative-format version by the producer; commonly used to: 1) provide descriptions of one or more visual elements such as charts, graphs, etc. 2) supply operating instructions 3) describe differences between the print book and the audio version. |
q |
contains a short, inline quotation. Compare with <blockquote>, which marks a longer quotation set off from the surrounding text. [XHTML11STRICT] |
rearmatter |
contains supplementary material such as appendices, glossaries, bibliographies, and indices. It follows the <bodymatter> of the book. |
samp |
contains a sample of work created by the author for use as an example or template. For example, a sample business letter, resume, computer program output, or form. [XHTML11STRICT] |
sent |
marks a sentence. |
sidebar |
contains information supplementary to the main text and/or narrative flow and is often boxed and printed apart from the main text block on a page. It may have a heading <hd>. |
span |
is a generic container for use in inline settings when no specific tag exists for a given situation. The class attribute may describe the nature of the text it marks (e.g., a typographical error). May be used to mark a class of items to which styles are to be applied. Compare with <div>, which is used in a block settings. [XHTML11STRICT] |
strong |
marks stronger emphasis than <em>. Visually <strong> is usually rendered bold. [XHTML11STRICT] |
style |
provides the means to include styling information that applies to the book. It may appear only in <head>. It may include CDATA sections. [XHTML11STRICT] |
sub |
indicates a subscript character (printed below a character's normal baseline). Can be used recursively and/or intermixed with <sup>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
sup |
marks a superscript character (printed above a character's normal baseline). Can be used recursively and/or intermixed with <sub>. [XHTML11STRICT] |
table |
contains cells of tabular data arranged in rows and columns. A <table> may have a <caption>. It may have descriptions of the columns in <col>s or groupings of several <col> in <colgroup>. A simple <table> may be made up of just rows <tr>. A long table crossing several pages of the print book should have separate <pagenum> values for each of the pages containing that <table> indicated on the page where it starts. Note the logical order of optional <thead>, optional <tfoot>, then one or more of either <tbody> or just rows <tr>. This order accommodates simple or large, complex tables. The <thead> and <tfoot> information usually helps identify content of the <tbody> rows, For a multiple-page print <table> the <thead> and <tfoot> are repeated on each page, but not redundantly tagged. [XHTML11STRICT] |
tbody |
marks a group of rows in the main body of a <table>. If the <table> is divided into several sections, each consisting of a number of rows, each section would be separately tagged with <tbody>. The same <thead> and <tfoot> apply to every <tbody> section. Use multiple <tbody> sections when rules are needed between groups of table rows. [XHTML11STRICT] |
td |
indicates a table cell containing data. [XHTML11STRICT] |
tfoot |
marks footer information in a <table>, consisting of one or more rows <tr>, usually of <th> cells. Use <tfoot> to duplicate footers when breaking table across page boundaries, or for static footers when <tbody> sections are rendered in scrolling panel. [XHTML11STRICT] |
th |
indicates a table cell containing header information. [XHTML11STRICT] |
thead |
marks header information in a <table>, consisting of one or more rows <tr> of <th> cells. Use <thead> to duplicate headers when breaking table across page boundaries, or for static headers when <tbody> sections are rendered in scrolling panel. [XHTML11STRICT] |
title |
contains the title of the book but is used only as metainformation in <head>. Use <doctitle> within <book> for the actual book title, which will usually be the same. [XHTML11STRICT] |
tr |
marks one row of a <table> containing <th> or <td> cells. [XHTML11STRICT] |
w |
marks a word. |

For each of the element declarations the following information is supplied:
<!ELEMENT elementname>
content model
.attribute list
Element Declarations are shown as:
<!ELEMENT elementname
Contains: | |
EMPTY or original content model: | |
Expanded: | |
content model with parameter entities expanded |
>
EMPTY
declared content denotes that the element has no explicit content. Instead, its purpose is to mark a position, and to associate attribute values to that position. The XML-approved way to indicate the end-tag of such an element is by the special tag close ' />'. Some browsers presume that leading space (after the end of the final quoted value for an attribute).
EMPTY
horizontal rule tag:<hr title="horizontal rule purpose" />
<hr title="horizontal rule purpose"></hr>
Element content models are formed from a parenthesized list of names of other elements or parameter entities of the form %name; or #PCDATA
, separated by connectors:
Connector | Use | Example |
---|---|---|
, | sequence | (x,y) is x followed by y |
| | alternative | (x|y) is either x or y |
(...) | grouping | (x,(y|z)) is x followed by either y or z |
Individual names or groupings of them may have a following replicator. If there is no replicator, that means just one of what precedes it, possibly a parenthesized expression.
Replicator | Use | Example |
---|---|---|
? | optional | x? means zero or one of x |
* | optional and repeatable | x* means zero or more of x |
+ | Repeatable | x+ means one or more of x |
none | One only | x means just one x |
#PCDATA
stands for parsed character data. The name suggests that the content may include other inline element tags intermixed as allowed in the content model.
#PCDATA
can occur as an entire content model. Or, it can occur first among alternatives. For examples:
Content Model | Meaning |
---|---|
(x | y)+ |
Either x or y , repeatable, in any order |
(x,y?) |
x , optionally followed by y |
(x?,(y|z)*) |
Optional x , followed by optional and repeatable choice of x or y |
(#PCDATA) |
Any text or character entities |
(#PCDATA | x | y)+ |
#PCDATA , intermixed and repeatable, with x or y |
The final example above with #PCDATA allows choice among 0 or more of x or y intermixed with text. Note that because the #PCDATA
is present, even an empty string matches this model.
#PCDATA
may also contain character entities that permit representing non-ASCII characters, intermixed with characters from the document character set. If this set is "ISO-8879-1" or the ASCII characters, a form for referencing such non-ASCII entities is:
&xHHHH;
where the HHHH denotes a Unicode hexadecimal code position.
Go to the Table of Contents.
An Attribute list has the form:
<!ATTLIST associatedElementName attributeList>
The associatedElementName
identifies the corresponding element type.
The attributeList
has one or more attributes. Each attribute has three parts:
1. Name of attribute as it may appear in a document tag; there quoted in one of the forms:
name="value"
name='value'
.Note that the value
may include character entities such as the quoting entities themselves: quote "
(") and apostrophe: '
(').
2. Declared value of attribute, of various types:
Attribute Kind | Explanation |
---|---|
ID |
identifier, formed from letters (case sensitive), digits, dash, underscore, and period. |
IDREF |
Value is one ID value |
IDREFS |
Values are one or more space-separated ID values |
CDATA |
character string, with the semantic meaning suggested by the parameter entity name. |
(name1|name2|...) | Select at most one among the alternatives |
3. Default value of attribute, of various kinds:
Default Value | Explanation | |
---|---|---|
#IMPLIED |
attribute and its value may be omitted, and if so, the meaning is up to the system. | |
#REQUIRED |
attribute and its value must be included. | |
quoted value | One of the explicit names in the Declared value alternatives, using either quoting form: "value" , or 'value' . | |
#FIXED | Unchanging explicit value shown. |
The use of each unique attribute is explained.
Go to the Table of Contents.
Three kinds of entity declarations may appear:
Parameter entities are used to define content in one place for reuse. The parameter entity form is:
<!ENTITY % pename "...">
The effect is to define pename to have the value "...".
Reference to that parameter entity is by:
A parameter entity definition may contain other parameter entity references. See Section 3.9 Parameter Entity Declarations. for the parameter entities defined in this dtbook110 DTD.
<!ENTITY gename "...">
Examples in the DTD (and every XML application DTD) are the special character entities.
The five following characters may have special markup meaning, so are expressed as character entities in text. They arerecognizable since they are preceded by "&" and followed by ";".
The notation below, #xHHHH (or #xHH) where H is a hexadecimal-number(formed from 0-9 and A-F), indicates the character code position in Unicode/ISO-10646 [ISO10646i].
Entity Declaration | Hex Value | ASCII Value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
<!ENTITY lt | "&#x003C;"> | "&#60;" | < Less than, normally starts a tag. |
<!ENTITY gt | ">" > | ">" | > Greater than, normally ends a tag. |
<!ENTITY amp | "&#x0026;"> | "&#38;" | & Ampersand, normally begins a character entity reference. |
<!ENTITY apos | "'"> | "'" | ' Neutral Quote, Apostrophe, if needed within an attribute string so quoted. |
<!ENTITY quot | """ > | """ | " Quotation mark, if needed within an attribute string so quoted. |
Note that the "<" and "&" characters in the declarations of "lt" and "amp" above are doubly escaped to meet the requirement that entity replacement be well-formed.
As these character entities occur in the first plane of Unicode, with encodings the same as ASCII, the "00" prefix can be implied, so may be omitted.
Three larger character sets included in [HTML 4.0] are omitted here:
Unicode [ISO10646] is available to XML applications, so these characters are available, without the need for them.
The initial processing instruction that identifies dtbook as an XML application should use a more inclusive encoding, as described at the start of section 2.
Go to the Table of Contents.
Links are provided to the detailed descriptions for each elementname and parameter entity name in the detailed descriptions of the elements, their attlists, and the parameter entities that follow. When any parameter entity occurs in a declaration, a fully-expanded version of that declaration also appears.
The links to parameter entities in section 3.9 Parameter Entities Sorted are principally useful to get more detailed information about them.

head
head |
contains metainformation about the book but no actual content of the book itself, which is placed in <book>. This information is consonant with the <head> information in xhtml, see [XHTML11STRICT].

If optional, some user preference may allow skipping over the content. But <prodnote render='required'> is essential content for the user. An audible cue could announce the presence of the <prodnote>. |

"href" value may have three forms: 1) '#idref', in the <dtbook>, to the element type having the referenced id value; 2) 'uri', a uniform resource identifier to a resource, typically a document, see [RFC2396], possibly restricted to work with only the <dtbook> document content, as referenced content is expected to be available on the same media, and off-media references may not be available; 3) 'uri#xxx', in the resource uri, the element with id='xxx'. Uses of the remaining attributes other than %attrs; are: "type" is advisory content MIME type of the target, see [RFC1556]; "hreflang" is the language code of the href target, see [RFC1766]; "rel" is a list of forward link type(s), the relationship(s) expressed by the href value to the target, space-separated if multiple; "rev" is a list of reverse link types, the relationship(s) to this location from the href target, space-separated if multiple; "accesskey"=accessibility key character shortcut; "tabindex"=tabbing order. |

"page" allows three kinds of page numbering schemes to be identified: 'normal' Arabic numbering in the body of the book is the default, 'front' pages (from the <frontmatter>, often roman numbering), 'special' pagination schemes such as letter prefix hyphen Arabic number in appendices. Each pagenum needs a unique id value, by convention it is derived from the actual pagenumber. For multi-page continuous content, such as large <img> or <table>, put the sequence of <pagenum> on the page where that content starts. |
noteref
noteref |
marks one or more characters that reference a footnote or endnote <note>. Contrast with <annoref>. <noteref> and <note> are independently skippable. |

"src" specifies by URI the location of the image file. "alt" is used to supply a short description of the <img>. "longdesc" generally contains a pointer to a related <prodnote> that contains a detailed description of the <img>. The attributes "height" and "width" provide visual sizing information, measured in pixels. |
imggroup
imggroup |
provides a container for one or more <img> and associated <caption>(s) and <prodnote>(s). A <prodnote> may contain a description of the image. The content model allows: 1) multiple <img> if they share a caption, with the ids of each <img> in the <caption imgref="id1 id2 ...">, 2) multiple <caption> if several captions refer to a single <img id="xxx"> where each caption has the same <caption imgref="xxx">, 3) multiple <prodnote> if different versions are needed for different media (e.g., large print, braille, or print). If several <prodnote> refer to a single <img id="xxx">, each prodnote has the same <prodnote imgref="xxx">. |

If bullets and outline enumerations are part of the print content, they are expected to prefix those list items in content, rather than be implicitly generated. Note: XHTML has explicitly distinguished list element types: ol for ordered, and ul for unordered. |

table
table |
contains cells of tabular data arranged in rows and columns. A <table> may have a <caption>. It may have descriptions of the columns in <col>s or groupings of several <col> in <colgroup>. A simple <table> may be made up of just rows <tr>. A long table crossing several pages of the print book should have separate <pagenum> values for each of the pages containing that <table> indicated on the page where it starts. Note the logical order of optional <thead>, optional <tfoot>, then one or more of either <tbody> or just rows <tr>. This order accommodates simple or large, complex tables. The <thead> and <tfoot> information usually helps identify content of the <tbody> rows, For a multiple-page print <table> the <thead> and <tfoot> are repeated on each page, but not redundantly tagged.

"span" causes the attributes of one col element to apply to more than one column, extending in the writing direction for the language. Span is ignored if any <col> are present. "width" specifies the width of the columns, e.g. width='64' width in screen pixels width='0.5*' relative width of 0.5 "width" may contain a space- or comma-separated list of widths for each <col>, or percentages if values end in '%', or relative 'nn*' to indicate a fractional portion of the remaining widths after more explicit forms have been specified for other columns in the colgroup (presumably the sum encompasses all the columns). '0*' indicates minimal acceptable width based on column content. The <col> in a <colgroup> may inherit attribute values from it, or the closest enclosing ancestor element: <thead>|<tfoot>|<tbody>. If none, then the values are up to the user agent, possibly by user preference. |

"span" indicates how many columns the <col> extends, in the writing direction of the <table>. The attribute values apply to <th> and <td> that start in the column, even if they extend into the next column(s), by span value more than 1, and that next <col> may have different attribute values. "width" may contain a space- or comma-separated list of widths for each <col> of the span, or percentages if values end in '%', or relative 'nn*' to indicate a fractional portion of the remaining widths after more explicit forms have been specified for other columns in the span (presumably the sum encompasses all the columns of this span, and of other <colgroup>s). '0*' indicates minimal acceptable width based on individual <col> content. <col> may inherit attribute values from the most immediate enclosing ancestor element: <colgroup>, <thead>|<tbody>|<tfoot>. If none, it is up to the user agent, possibly by user preference. |

The uses of attributes other than %attrs; %cellvalign; and %cellhalign; are shown below. See [HTML401STRICT] for details and examples. "abbr" provides an abbreviated name for a <th> cell that can be used when referring to that <th> cell. Its default value is the cell content. "axis" is used to place cells into conceptual categories in order to provide improved access to information. "headers" provides the id value(s), used with <td> cells, to reference one or more cells with <th id="xxx"> that contain headings that collectively describe or qualify the content of the cell, for example <td headers="id1 id2">. "scope" identifies one of (row | rowgroup | column | colgroup) to which the header information applies. "rowspan" indicates the total number of rows that the cell extends, by default 1. All spanned cells share these attributes. "colspan" indicates the total number of columns the cell extends, by default 1, in the writing direction of the table. All spanned cells share these attributes. |

Explanation: | % cellhalign cellhalign sets horizontal alignment of content in a table cell. char indicates a character expected in each table cell of a column that text should align on. The default is the decimal point for the current language. charoff sets the alignment offset of the first character to align on, as specified with char. Inheritance order for horizontal alignment is <th>|<td>, <tr>, <thead>|<tfoot>|<tbody>, <col>, <colgroup>, default. The default value is from the user agent, and may be affected by user preference. The recommended default alignment for <th> is center, and for <td> is left. |

Values of showin are coded with three letters in order: "b"=Braille, "l"=Largeprint, and "p"=Print; or "x"=inappropriate: Value Braille Largeprint Print Interpretation "xxx" hide "xxp" p print only "xlx" l largeprint only "xlp" l p largeprint and print "bxx" b braille only "bxp" b p braille and print "blx" b l braille and largeprint "blp" b l p braille, largeprint, and print There is no default value; this attribute value is implied from the most immediate ancestor that specifies a value. The usual default for showin is 'blp'. If only one showin value is needed it should be included with <book>. Different content for the same element (usually <prodnote! >) meeting different needs is possible, with showin serving as a switch to differentiate among them. Both largeprint and print are appropriate for screen rendering as well as printing. Different corresponding styles may be appropriate. It is possible to include equivalent content from any major structure below <book> to provide the different content suitable for different media. These would be independent, sharing no direct content, possibly having common references to images, with different accompanying text descriptions. |

The Digital Talking Book DTD has evolved since the first release 1998-10-08 of dtbook3.dtd, with contributions from many. The primary authors are:
They were assisted by DAISY Consortium and NISO DTB Committee work teams.
Go to the Table of Contents.
The dtbook DTD has two parameter entities defined that provide means to allow an individual book to modularly extend the content models for its block and inline parameter entities:
<!ENTITY % externalblock "">
<!ENTITY % externalinline "">
These parameter entities appear in corresponding block and inline content models. With this "" content they have no effect on books tagged to the dtbook DTD. In a book that needs a modular extension, values are given by redefinition in the internal subset of that book. This extends the dtbook DTD without having to change it.
A book can augment the dtbook DTD by including other declarations or parameter entity references in the internal subset of declarations. The internal subset may occur in square brackets following the ExternalID and before the concluding ">" of the initial DOCTYPE declaration that identifies the dtbook DTD.
Those additional markup declarations in the internal subset take preference over any in the dtbook DTD itself. The effective DTD is thereby augmented by the parameter entity values and any other declarations of the book's internal subset. When a given parameter entity declaration appears more than once in the external modules and the dtbook DTD, the first occurrence of that declaration is the one that takes effect, with modules in the internal subset being processed in order, before the DTD itself.
For example:
<!DOCTYPE dtbook SYSTEM
"dtbook.dtd"
[
<!ENTITY % dramaModule SYSTEM "drama.dtd">
%dramaModule;
<!ENTITY % externalblock "| drama">
<!ENTITY % externalinline "| stagedir">
]>
The "%dramaModule;" invocation causes all declarations made within dramaModule to become the initial part of the dtbook DTD. Within the book, the empty entity declarations for both % externalblock and for % externalinline are replaced by these new definitions. Thus the block element drama can appear wherever block elements may occur in dtbook. Similarly any actual content needed for %externalinline; (" | stagedir" is shown above) can appear in that extension to wherever %inline; appears in the DTD.
More than one module may be needed and included in a book, for example both poem and drama can appear in the internal subset of the book. For example, the internal subset of the book could contain:
<!DOCTYPE dtbook SYSTEM
"dtbook.dtd"
[
<!ENTITY % poemModule SYSTEM "poem.dtd">
%poemModule;
<!ENTITY % dramaModule SYSTEM "drama.dtd">
%dramaModule;
<!ENTITY % externalblock "| poem | stanza | verse | drama">
<!ENTITY % externalinline "| stagedir">
]>
Such external modules need to include the definitions of any parameter entities that are used in the modules since their definitions are needed before they can be expanded in their references. They cannot depend on parameter entities in the SystemLiteral or PubidLiteral.
Note that arbitrary external modules from other sources may not have all the needed attributes. XML allows augmentation of ATTLISTs in the internal subset. Additional attribute names can be added to an associated element type. Any redefinitions of a particular named attribute resulting from presence in the internal subset have precedence.
Also note that element name collisions may be possible, with names in those modules and associated content models overriding those in dtbook. For modules under control of dtbook design, such collisions can be avoided. A more general solution uses namespace prefixes to element and attribute names to clearly indicate the module source.
Following the document type declaration, the fully marked-up document appears, including tags from the external modules found in the internal subset. Declarations in the internal subset or in external entity references (such as %dramaModule;) referenced therein take precedence over like-named ones from the external entity containing the base DTD (that is, dtbook110.dtd). Thus the declarations from the module containing the drama and poem tags are included along with the tags in the base DTD (that is dtbook110.dtd) that are not duplicated or redefined in the drama module. So if a <p> tag is defined in the drama module, its definition overrides that of the <p> tag in dtbook. There is an exception: an ATTLIST for elementname that adds attributes from the internal subset augments the ATTLIST attributes with different attribute names in the ATTLIST of the same elementname in the dtbook110.dtd.
Note that tools and players processing any extended markup that affects navigation structure will need to know of those modular extensions.
The form above for augmenting the dtbook dtd through the document's internal subset does not require the XML namespace mechanism, with its namespace-specific prefix on element and attribute names to disambiguate any potential name collisions. However, use of XML namespaces [XML-NAMES] is not precluded.
