Description |
An item list is used to refer to one or more XML elements or attributes. In an explicit interpolation (i.e. using '\#' characters), only the first item is returned. In functions and commands which have auto-interpolated parameters, all the items are returned, but some functions/commands only use the first one. |
||
An item list consists of a preamble which specifies where to start resolving from, followed by the path to an item. The preamble consists of a branch or template specifier, followed optionally by a '\' indicating whether to start at the root or current level. The path to an item consists of a list of sublevels, separated by '\' characters. These will normally be names of sub-elements. |
