target
Target
The @target attribute acts as a pointer to another element in the same document, typically within the TBX-namespaced elements. For the link to be established, the value of the @target attribute on a source element must be the same as the value of a unique identifier (@id attribute) on the element to which the target points.
Usage
The content of elements that take this attribute is typically the display value of the target element, such as the target term. The elements that take this attribute cannot be empty; display content is mandatory.
When this attribute is used on elements such as <tbx:entailedTerm> or <tbx:crossReference>, the @target attribute often points to another term in the glossary section.
Used on Elements: <tbx:crossReference>, <tbx:entailedTerm>, <tbx:see>
