14.10 Configuring links for DITA XML

Mif2Go converts FrameMaker cross references and hypertext links to DITA <xref> elements. DITA allows cross references to <topic> (including each basic type), <section> (including <example> and <refsyn>), <table>, <fig>, <fn>, and <li>. No other elements. Mif2Go provides an ID for each instance of each of these elements, if a suitable ID is not already present.

When an <xref> tag appears in a context where it is not valid, such as in a title, Mif2Go automatically wraps the <xref> in a <ph> element.

To provide a link destination for target elements that do not already contain a DITAElemID marker (see §14.4.6.1 Specifying a value for the id attribute), Mif2Go makes the ID of the target element the content of the first newlink marker in the element; or, in the absence of newlink markers, the numeric ID of the cross-reference marker.

In this section:

§14.10.1 Linking to elements below topic level

§14.10.2 Retaining cross-reference content in <xref> elements

§14.10.3 Omitting <xref> elements from footnotes

§14.10.4 Overriding <xref> attribute values
