   RE: [xml-dev] attributes vs. elements

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Robin Cover's Cover Pages has a whole section dedicated 
to this topic.  Don't be embarrassed by the newbie status; 
every newbie asks this at least once and that is why 
there is that section in the Cover Pages.

maybe just don't know how to explain it to others. 

When should one use an element and when should one use an attribute?
