16.2.6 Providing navigation aids in ditamaps

To add navigation elements to the map entry for a topic, insert custom FrameMaker markers in the <title> paragraph of the topic. Table 16-1 shows the content and placement of the navigation element for each custom marker type.

Table 16-1 DITA map navigation elements from custom markers

Custom marker type	Marker content	Map element	Map placement
DITAAnchor	id attribute	<anchor>	After the <topicref> of the topic
DITANavref	mapref attribute	<navref>	After the <topicref> of the topic
DITAMapref	href attribute	<topicref>	After the <topicref> of the topic
DITALinkText	text for the link	<linktext>	In the map <topicmeta>

The content of a DITAMapref marker should be a map file name. Mif2Go sets the format attribute of the resulting <topicref> element to "ditamap".
