A number that indicates element content changes in a specific issue of an information module or IPM
Used when this element and/or its contained elements have been changed in a revision or update and it is required that the change shall be visible to the end user, e.g. through change bars. The number shall correspond to the change issue number ( attribute andr.nr on element andring) in the Administrative data module where the change description is.
Example: If andr.utg has a value of "3", it means that changes has been made since issue number "2"
This attribute is used in order to enable the generation of change bars on paper. If no change bars are requried, it is enough to document the change in the admindata module, possibly with references (hanvisning) to changed elements.
Note: Deletion of an element is never directly indicated. Instead, the change attribute on a parent element is filled in.
NUMBER
Number of cells that are spanned horisontally.
When two or more cells are spanned horisontally, only one cell element is used in SGML, but with this attribute filled in. The number in this attribute shall be identical to the number of cells that are spanned, and must always be >1 (other values are ignored).
Note: This DTD do not allow vertical spans.
NUMBER
Reference identity of the element.
Used to identify the element to enable referring by use of HyTime.
Due to the large number of required ID attributes, software for creating information modules should have the possibility to automatically generate ID values.
ID
Indicates that the content of this element is found elsewhere
This attribute is used to indicate that the content of this element is found elsewhere. This is especially useful to avoid duplicating information, and a controlled use of this attribute is recommended.
The value given to this element has no meaning in SGML or HyTime, other than to indicate that a link from this element to the content has been established in the linking module (a 'lnk.inf.fragm'). Such a link must always exist if this attribute is given a value.
Any value here is supposed to trigger the inclusion of the content.
The other attributes for this element is used for the referenced content, and the attributes at the target element is neglected (except if the "ihref" attribute is used for that element, in which case the content reference continues). Elements contained in the referenced content do however keep their attribute values as is, which means that the ID attributes might possibly conflict, if and when the link is resolved in batch mode and a resulting file created. To avoid this, ensure that all ID's for the material system are unique (this is not a requirement, however).
If used, this element must be empty and must not have an end tag.
CDATA
Gives the context in which the cell content appears
This attribute gives the context in which the cell content appears, i.e. a self-explanatory description of what the cell content actually is. Normally such information is found in column heads and row titles, and sometimes in table titles and even outside the table, e.g. in the section header.
This attribute must be filled in in acordance with the specification given in attribute "sammanhang.spec" at element <table>, but there is no formal rules for the format or syntax of this attribute. It may contant one single descriptive text string, that can only be used as is, or it may contain text 'sub-strings', that corresponds to the keywords in "sammanhang.spec".
It is recommended that this attribute is filled in automatically by the software used for the creation of the table, but with possibilities for the author to change the values.
