Some documents, usually legacy documents, use headings that are
not tied to the normal sectional hieararchy.
These headings may be
represented in DocBook with the BridgeHead
element.
BridgeHead
s may also be useful in fiction or journalistic
works that don't have a nested hierarchy.
A BridgeHead
is formatted as a block, using the same
display properties as the section heading which it
masquerades as. The RenderAs
attribute controls which heading it mimics.
The InterfaceDefinition
element will be discarded in DocBook V4.0. It will no longer be available
in the content model of this element.

BridgeHead

BridgeHead
can be made to appear as a Sect1
,
for example.
