Attributes

URL

URL give the Uniform Resource Locator that is the target of the ULink.

Type

Type indicates how the Members of the SimpleList should be formatted: Inline (Members separated by commas, etc., inline), Vert (top to bottom in the number of columns indicated by the Columns attribute), or Horiz (right to left or left to right, depending on current text flow) in the number of columns indicated by the Columns attribute). The default is Vert. If Column is 1 or #IMPLIED, Type=Vert and Type=Horiz give the same results.

Examples

<PARA><MODESPEC ID="mo123" APPLICATION="FAX">usenumericipaddr</MODESPEC>
To warm up, we provide a <ANCHOR ID="proan123"> target in
<PHRASE ID="proan124">the same place</PHRASE>, pretty much.
To go there,
<LINK LINKEND="proan123" TYPE="info">click here</LINK>
and say goodbye.  Or click to go to
<LINK LINKEND="proan123" ENDTERM="proan124"></LINK>.
You may prefer to 
<ULINK URL="http://foo.bar.com/index.html" TYPE="alternate">click
here</ULINK> instead.  And if that doesn't work, just
<OLINK TARGETDOCENT="foobar" LINKMODE="mo123" 
LOCALINFO="noretry" TYPE="desperate">click here</OLINK>
and give up all hope.
