note (Domino DTD)

Defines the structure of a note in a Domino database. A note is usually represented as a document element or as a defined design element, such as a form or view. Exporting or importing note elements in DXL is for advanced users. More data is interpreted when you access a note as a design element, such as a form or view, than when you access it as a note element.

Attributes

<!ATTLIST note


%note.attrs;
class	(%note.classes;)	#REQUIRED
default	%boolean;	#IMPLIED
private	%boolean;	#IMPLIED

class

Type of note class, as defined in the %note.classes; entity.

default

If true, this note is the default for the specified note class.

private

If true, this note is private. Use this attribute to specify private design elements.

Defined entity for <note> element

The %note.classes; entity lists the types of notes classes that compose a Notes database. The class of a note is determined by a value stored in its header. A %note.classes; entity differs from a %note.types; entity in that a note's type is determined first by its class and is then further specified by the presence or absence of a specific item within the note. For instance, agents and scripts both belong to the FILTER class; yet their note types differ based on the value of the item called $Flags, which they each contain.

Syntax:

<!ENTITY % note.classes "document | helpaboutdocument | form | view | icon | helpindex | helpusingdocument | filter | sharedfield | replicationformula ">

The %note.classes; entity defines the following:

document

DOCUMENT class note, which includes documents.

filter

FILTER class note, which includes agents, database scripts, outlines, and script libraries.

form

FORM class note, which includes forms, framesets, pages, and subforms.

helpaboutdocument

INFO class note, which specifies the About This Database document for Help.*

helpindex

HELP_INDEX class note, which specifies the index for Help.*

helpusingdocument

HELP class note, which specifies the Using This Database document for Help.

icon

ICON class note.*

replicationformula

REPLFORMULA class note, which specifies the replication formula for a database.

sharedfield

FIELD class note, which includes shared fields.

view

*Each database contains only a single occurrence of these classes.
