Synopsis
seglistitem ::=
seg+
Attribute synopsis
Additional constraints
The number of
segelements must be the same as the number ofsegtitleelements in the parentsegmentedlist.
Description
A segmentedlist consists of a set of headings
(segtitles) and a list of parallel sets of elements.
Each set of elements is stored in a
seglistitem.
Processing expectations
Segmented lists can be formatted in a number of ways. Two
popular formats are tabular and as a list of repeated headings and
elements. In a tabular presentation, each seglistitem is a row in the table. In
the list presentation, each seglistitem contains a
block of heading/element pairs.
DocBook cannot detect errors caused by too many or too few
segs in a seglistitem. You will
have to rely on external processes to find those errors.
Examples
See segmentedlist for an example that uses this
element.
