New version of the Table of contents document

[Didier PH Martin]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the comment about the namespace identifier. I am actually adding
a schema and a namespace document encoded with a format we are designing
with James Tauber and Francois Beauregard.

Can you expand more on your suggestion about the logical identifier.

thanks

Hi,

I am building a web site which I'd like to be show case of XML
technologies ;=) and I have read with great interest your Table of
Content Pattern which can be used as a site map.

I'd like to suggest to add an identifier to the topic element.

I may have missed something, but I haven't found in either XLINK or the
TOC Pattern a mechanism to address a resource without using a URI which
is dependent of the physical layout of the site.

As a web designer, I'd prefer (at least during the design phase...) to
be able to use logical identifiers which are independent of the physical
layout.

It could be done by adding a "name" attribute to the topic entity.

Thanks

Eric
