Text Encoding Initiative

The XML Version of the TEI Guidelines

<anchor>


<anchor> (anchor point) attaches an identifier to a point within a text, whether or not it corresponds with a textual element.
Example
<s>The anchor is he<anchor id="A234"/>re somewhere.</s>
<s>Help me find it.<ptr target="A234"/></s>
Note

On this element, the global id attribute must be supplied to specify an identifier for the point at which this element occurs within a document. The value used may be chosen freely provided that it is unique within the document and is a syntactically valid name. There is no requirement for values containing numbers to be in sequence.
