Attributes
@endid, @fret, @label, @startid, @type, @xml:id
@endid(optional)Indicates the final element in a sequence of events to which the feature applies. Value conforms to data.URI.
@fret(optional)This attribute is deprecated in favor of @tab.fret, and will be removed in a future version. Records the location at which the strings should be stopped against a fret in a fretboard diagram. This may or may not be the same as the actual location on the fretboard of the instrument in performance. Value is a positive integer.
@label(optional)Captures text to be used to generate a label for the element to which it’s attached, a "tool tip" or prefatory text, for example. Should not be used to record document content. Value is plain text.
@startid(optional)Holds a reference to the first element in a sequence of events to which the feature applies. Value conforms to data.URI.
@type(optional)Designation which characterizes the element in some sense, using any convenient classification scheme or typology that employs single-token labels. One or more values of datatype NMTOKEN, separated by spaces.
@xml:id(optional)Regularizes the naming of an element and thus facilitates building links between it and other resources. Each id attribute within a document must have a unique value. Value is a valid xml:id.
@fret(optional)This attribute is deprecated in favor of @tab.fret, and will be removed in a future version. Records the location at which the strings should be stopped against a fret in a fretboard diagram. This may or may not be the same as the actual location on the fretboard of the instrument in performance. Value is a positive integer.
