XLink

Definition

The XML Linking Language (XLink) allows elements to be inserted into XML documents in order to create and describe links between resources.

XLink provides a framework for creating both basic unidirectional links and more complex linking structures. It allows XML documents to:

• Assert linking relationships among more than two resources
• Associate metadata with a link
• Express links that reside in a location separate from the linked resources
