Omni Systems, Inc. Mif2Go User's Guide, Version 55
> 21 Mapping text formats to HTML/XML > 21.4 Mapping character formats
You can specify HTML tags to be used for character formats; for example:
; Document character format name = HTML starting element name(s)
; use strong, em, code, cite, var, or blink, or span for HTML elements
Although the format properties listed here are
the only valid HTML styles, Mif2Go lets you specify any tag, to permit XML markup
and CSS span
class assignments. However, only
valid HTML tags have an effect in Mif2Go HTML output.
For XHTML, all format names must be lowercase.
To add attributes to a character tag, list them after the tag. For example:
Everything after the first space is removed for
the end tag. To apply an attribute to an individual instance of a character
format, insert an attribute marker in the character span; see §29.2.4 Using attribute markers for HTML or XML.
For this example, you would use a marker of type CharType
with content bold
(no quotation marks).
If no tags are specified in [CharTags]
for a particular character format, by default that format gets a span
class; see §22.7.3 Mapping character formats to tags or span classes.
To eliminate style tags entirely, map the character format to nothing:
§14.4.2 Deriving XML tags from format and class names
