<classes>

<classes> specifies all the classes of which the documented element or class is a member or subclass.
Attributes (In addition to global attributes)
names lists the identifiers of all classes of which the documented element or class is a member or subclass, possibly using parentheses to indicate inheritance.
Datatype: CDATA
Values: a list of class names separated by spaces or commas, and optionally enclosed by parentheses; each name should be the class name specified for some element class in the scheme being documented or modified.
Default: #REQUIRED
Example 
<classes names="HQINTER INTER COMMON">hqinter
[and indirectly also:] common, inter</classes>

This <classes> element indicates that the element documented is a member of the class hqinter, which is itself a subclass of the classes inter and thus also of common. The value of the names attribute and the content are synonymous, two ways of representing the same information.
Example 
<classes names="HQINTER">hqinter</classes>

This <classes> element indicates that the element documented is a member of the class hqinter, but gives no indication that hqinter is itself a subclass of phrase.
