Description

Reference pages have their own hierarchical structure. A RefSection is a recursive division in a RefEntry, analagous to a Section elsewhere in the document.

The value of a separate hierarchical structure is that it allows the content model of sections in reference pages to be customized differently than the content model of sections outside.

Processing expectations

Formatted as a displayed block.

Parents

These elements contain refsection: refentry, refsection.

Attributes

status

Status identifies the editorial or publication status of the RefSection.

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).
