The Tag Glossary: Q

Orlando's content is structured by the unique XML tagset described in the Introduction and visualized in the Tag Diagrams. To assist in understanding Search result facets and Tag Search, this Glossary provides definitions for tags and attributes (descriptors associated with tags). Some attributes have set values. These are often explained within definitions of attributes. Other attribute values, such as genre names, are defined within the ontologies of the Canadian Writing Research Collaboratory, which hosts Orlando’s production environment. Searches on this page retrieve tags, attributes, and definitions, but not necessarily attribute values.

QUOTE


This element is globally available. It is modified by one attribute, DIRECT. The attribute options are yes (y), no (n), or unspecified (unspecified). These govern whether the words within the quote will be set off with single or double quotes. DIRECT=Y is used whenever a direct quote is included; DIRECT=N is used for quote within quote.
