The Article element is a general-purpose container for
articles. The content model is both quite complex and rather loose in
order to accommodate the wide range of possible Article structures. Although
changes to the Article element have been discussed on several
occasions, no better model has been presented.
An Article is composed of a header and a body. The body
may include a table of contents and multiple lists of tables, figures,
and so on, before the main text of the article and may include a number of
common end-matter components at the end.
Formatted as a displayed block. Frequently causes a forced page break in print media. May be numbered separately and presented in the table of contents.
The ToC element in the content model may be
replaced by TocChap. This change may be delayed if the
DocBook technical committee decides to review the whole
ToC/LoT apparatus.
The following elements occur in article:
abstract, ackno, address, anchor, appendix, articleinfo, authorblurb, beginpage, bibliography, bibliolist, blockquote, bridgehead, calloutlist, caution, classsynopsis, cmdsynopsis, colophon, constraintdef, constructorsynopsis, destructorsynopsis, epigraph, equation, example, fieldsynopsis, figure, formalpara, funcsynopsis, glossary, glosslist, graphic, graphicco, highlights, important, index, indexterm, informalequation, informalexample, informalfigure, informaltable, itemizedlist, literallayout, lot, mediaobject, mediaobjectco, methodsynopsis, msgset, note, orderedlist, para, procedure, productionset, programlisting, programlistingco, qandaset, refentry, remark, screen, screenco, screenshot, sect1, section, segmentedlist, sidebar, simpara, simplelist, simplesect, subtitle, synopsis, table, task, tip, title, titleabbrev, toc, tocchap, variablelist, warning.
Class identifies the type of article.
ParentBook holds the ID of an enclosing
Book, if applicable.
Status identifies the editorial or publication
status of the Article.
Publication status might be used to control formatting (for example, printing a “draft” watermark on drafts) or processing (perhaps a document with a status of “final” should not include any components that are not final).
