<tbx:xGraphic> External Graphic (TBX)
The <tbx:xGraphic> element is a hyperlinking element that points, through the @xtarget attribute, to a graphic file that is in an external document. Examples of “external
graphics” include non-textual (non-verbal) representations such as a graphic, table,
or media object such as a video or sound file
Usage/Remarks
Best Practice
In general, <tbx:xGraphic> elements should not replace a definition but complement it, except in domains or
subjects in which nonverbal representations are conventionally used instead of a definition
Content/Display
Typically, this element will be rendered in the published text with the label “See: ” before it. The element content should contain the desired display text of the link.
For example:
<tbx:xGraphic xtarget="http://www.example.com/graphic.html">Picture of a circuit board</tbx:xGraphic>
Linking
The required @xtarget attribute will hold the URI for the actual link.
