| Name | Description | Data Type | Default Value | Required? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| navtitle | Specifies the title of the topic as it will appear in the navigation or tables of contents that are generated from the map. Beginning with DITA 1.2, the preferred way to specify the navigation title in a map is with the navtitle element, available inside the topicmeta element. | CDATA | #IMPLIED | No |
| href | Provides a reference to a resource. See The href attribute for detailed information on supported values and processing implications. | CDATA | #IMPLIED | No |
| copy-to | Use the copy-to attribute on the
<topicref> element to provide a different file name
for a particular instance of the topic in the map (for example, to separate out
the different versions of the topic, rather than combining them on output). The
links and navigation associated with that instance will point to a copy of the
topic with the file name you specified.
Use the <linktext> and <shortdesc> in the <topicref>'s <topicmeta> to provide a unique name and short description for the new copy. |
