Glossary for this
source
Modes allow a node in a source tree to be
processed multiple times, each time producing a different result.
They also allow different sets of template rules to be active when
processing different trees, for example when processing documents
loaded using the document function (see ) or when processing
temporary trees.
- modularization

From Modularization of XHTML (2001-04-10)
| Glossary for
this source
an implementation of a modularization
model; the process of composing or de-composing a DTD by dividing
its markup declarations into units or groups to support specific
goals. Modules may or may not exist as separate file entities
(i.e., the physical and logical structures of a DTD may mirror each
other, but there is no such requirement).the abstract design of the
document type definition (DTD) in support of the modularization
goals, such as reuse, extensibility, expressiveness, ease of
documentation, code size, consistency and intuitiveness of use. It
is important to note that a modularization model is only
orthogonally related to the document model it describes, so that
two very different modularization models may describe the same
document type.
