Law element identifiers (id attribute)
Add a unique id attribute value to any element where the id attribute is valid. Within a document xref links use the id value as the target.
//@id
In IC law reports, the id attribute value must follow the format:
law-series-nnn-YYYY-element-xx
In ORIL law reports, the id attribute value must follow the format
law-series-nnnjjjjYY-element-xx
Where:
-
law - is a constant
-
series - is a code representing the case report series. For IC law reports the value of series is always
iic. ORIL includes these case report series codes.For the id attribute value, use the codes in lower-case.
-
nnn - is the unique sequential number taken from the
caseid -
jjjj - is the (lower-case) jurisdiction/court identifier taken from the
caseid(this may be 2 or more characters). -
YYYYorYY - is the year information taken from the
caseid -
element - is the element name containing the id. This is the local name, i.e. without any namespace
-
xx - is a unique and sequential value, that follows on from the preceding element with the same name
Do not include the element name and number in the id for the root element, that is exclude the trailing
-element-xx.
