This document expands upon the XML Document Type Definition implementing the NISO Digital Talking Book Version 3-06.
The Digital Talking Book 3.0 provides the means to package a published book with the combination of professional narration, navigation into that narration, and the text of the book marked with tags to convey its structure, content, and metadata about the book and its structure.
The Document Type Definition (DTD) defines the allowable element types and their attributes that can be used to markup the text of the book sufficiently that textual material can be synchronized with the professionally narrated version of that book. The synchronization can permit concurrent display of the text being narrated, and the textual material can be searched to locate material desired for narration.
This application of XML is the next generation after the DAISY 2.0 DTD, for the Digital Audio-based Information SYstem. That application developed a Navigation Control Center (NCC) for synchronizing document structure with narration.
The NCC will become another XML application derived from the markup of documents tagged using the dtbook3 DTD. Richer structuring capability is one of the objectives of this DTD. The Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL) 1.0 will be used.
Some HTML elements are omitted from dtbook3. HTML authoring tools may include many of the additional tags that are left out of dtbook3. Endtag markup, sometimes optional in HTML, are required for use with dtbook3, as any XML application requires endtags. The benefit of including endtags is that the tagged document has dependable structure.
The tools available for browsing HTML may be used with dtbook3 material, at the expense of discarding some specific tagging and attributes that are not part of HTML 4.0.
A Digital Talking Book 3 document should begin with the XML processing instruction identifying the version of XML, and encoding, such as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
The alternative encoding="UTF-8" is appropriate for supporting UNICODE, as is expected for systems supporting XML applications.
This is followed by the document type declaration, the DOCTYPE:
<!DOCTYPE dtbook3 PUBLIC
It identifies dtbook3 as the name of the root element, the first to occur in any document.
Note that the reference is to the latest version of the DTD. When a document is tagged to a particular version of the DTD, the following is the alternative, here referring to version 3-06.
<!DOCTYPE dtbook3 PUBLIC
The ExternalID begins with PUBLIC and is followed by the formal public identifier, indicating
-// |
unregistered |
NISO// |
owning organization |
DTD |
kind of external entity |
dtbook3.dtd |
possibly with version 3-06 and date. |
//EN |
the public text language is English. |
Then comes the PUBLIC URI for the DTD, where it may be found on the internet. Note that the URI pointing to the public version is to this abbreviated version, not the extended version.
The third string identifies the SYSTEM (local) version of the DTD, in this form it is expected to be found in the same directory as this dtbook3 document, else find from the PUBLIC URI.
XML allows an internal subset of declarations (in "[...]" before the concluding ">" of the DOCTYPE declaration) that override or extend those of this DTD. Future modularization will likely use these to enable otherwise disabled marked sections for modules such as drama.
The latest version of the dtbook3 DTD is available at
Earlier individual versions are available, differentiated by suffix: This version is dtbk3-06.dtd.
Expanded DTD documentation of the DTD is available as an HTM 4.0 page at:
The SMIL 1.0 specification is available at:
This dtbook3.dtd is an application of the Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0. The XML specification is available at:
It is based on an XML version of the HTML 4.0 Strict DTD, with design adaptation for dtbook3. That HTML DTD and more detailed documentation of the element types that come from that DTD is available at:
Appendix A: Occurrences of Each Element Type in Content Models
Element | Description |
---|---|
a |
contains an anchor, which is used in two ways: A name anchor identifies an exact position in a given document. A link anchor, when activated, "links to" (takes the user to) another place within that document or another document. [HTML 4.0] |
abbr |
designates an abbreviation, a shortened form of a word. |
acronym |
marks a word formed from key letters (usually initials) of a group of words. For example: UNESCO, NATO, XML. |

address |
contains a location at which a person or agency may be contacted. [HTML 4.0] |
author |
identifies the writer of a given work. |

bdo |
is used in special cases where the automatic actions of the bidirectional algorithm would result in incorrect display. [HTML 4.0] |
blockquote |
indicates a quotation that is set off from the surrounding text by paragraph breaks. Compare with <q> which marks short, inline quotations. [HTML 4.0] |
bodymatter |
consists of the text proper of a book, as opposed to preliminary material (frontmatter) or supplementary information (rearmatter). |
book |
surrounds the entire content of the document, divided into frontmatter, bodymatter, and rearmatter. Metadata is not included in <book>, but is placed in <head>. |
br |

The level1 ... level6 hierarchy, or the <level> tag used recursively, should mark the major hierarchical structures of a book, while div is used in less formal circumstances or when for production purposes it is desired that a structure should be treated differently. The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., part, chapter, letter) of the structure it marks. Compare with <span> which is used in inline settings. [HTML 4.0] |
dl |
contains a definition list, usually consisting of pairs of terms <dt> and definitions <dd>. Any definition can contain another definition list. [HTML 4.0] |

The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., part, chapter, letter) of the structure it marks. |
level2 |
contains subdivisions that nest within level1 divisions. The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., part, chapter, letter) of the structure it marks. |
level3 |
contains subdivisions that nest within level2 subdivisions (e.g., subsections within sections). The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., part, chapter, letter) of the structure it marks. |

For each of the elements in the dtbk3-03.dtd in the order they occur in the DTD the following information is supplied:
Element Declarations are shown as:
<!ELEMENT elementname
Contains: | |
EMPTY or original content model: | |
Expanded: | |
content model with parameter entities expanded |
>
EMPTY
declared content denotes that the element has no explicit content.
Instead its purpose is to mark a position, and to associate attribute values to that position. The
XML-approved way to indicate the end-tag of such an element is by the special tag close ' />'.
That leading space (after the end of the final quoted value for an attribute) is presumed by some
browsers.
EMPTY
horizontal irule tag:<hr title="horizontal rule purpose" />
<hr title="horizontal rule purpose"></hr>
Element content models are formed from a parenthesized list of names of other elements or
parameter entities of the form %name; or #PCDATA
, separated by
connectors:
Connector | Use | Example |
---|---|---|
, | sequence | (x,y) is x followed by y |
| | alternative | (x|y) is either x or y |
(...) | grouping | (x,(y|z)) is x followed by either y or
z |
Individual names or groupings of them may have a following replicator (by default no replicator means one of:
Replicator | Use | Example |
---|---|---|
? | optional | x? means zero or one of x |
* | optional and repeatable | x* means zero or more of x |
+ | Repeatable | x+ means one or more of x |
none | One only | x means just one x |
#PCDATA
is a special name allowing text. The only place that it can
occur in a content model is first among alternatives:(#PCDATA | x | y)+
#PCDATA
stands for "parsed character data", indicating that the
content may include entities representing non-ASCII characters, intermixed with the ASCII
characters. The form for referencing such entities is&xHHHH;
Attribute List Declarations have one or more attributes. Each attribute has three parts: Name, Declared Value, and Default Value. They are shown as:
name="value"
.Attribute Type | Explanation |
---|---|
ID |
identifier, formed from letters (case sensitive), digits, dash, underscore, and period. |
IDREF |
Value is one ID value |
IDREFS |
Values are one or more space-separated ID values |
CDATA |
character string, with the semantic meaning suggested by the parameter entity name. |
(name1|name2|...) | Select at most one among the alternatives |
Default Value | Explanation |
---|---|
#IMPLIED |
attribute and its value may be omitted, and if so, the meaning is up to the system. |
#REQUIRED |
attribute and its value must be included. |

<div>
div |
is a generic container for subdivisions of a book. The level1 ... level6 hierarchy, or the <level> tag used recursively, should mark the major hierarchical structures of a book, while div is used in less formal circumstances or when for production purposes it is desired that a structure should be treated differently. The class attribute identifies the actual name (e.g., part, chapter, letter) of the structure it marks. Compare with <span> which is used in inline settings. [HTML 4.0] |

The Dublin Core is a metadata element set intended to facilitate discovery of electronic resources. It was originally conceived for author-generated description of Web resources. It has attracted the attention of formal resource description communities such as museums, libraries, government agencies, and commercial organizations.
In HTML 4.0 the fifteen names for the discovery concepts qualify their meaning. This set of names is fixed. They are specialized by associating to each occurrence of one of those names a value. The value is a string.
name
attribute form for Dublin Core is:<meta name="DC.xxx" value=\"...\">

Discovery\">
Name | Content |

DC.Title | Name of the resource. |
DC.Creator | Person or organization primarily responsible for the intellectual content of the resource. |

For example:
During transition to the single form, a browser should accept the alternative prefixes:
"DC:", "dc:",
or "dc."
Include as many separate meta elements as are appropriate, and repeat the same Name for each distinct and appropriate content. For a repeated name, the source order should be preserved in their contents.
The http-equiv attribute can replace name for use when documents are retrieved using HTTP. Servers can use the value to create a header in the HTTP response sent back to the browser.
The HTML meta attribute:
name="keywords" content="keyword1,keyword 2, ..."
is an HTML convention to aid search engines. Dublin Core does not recognize this use. Instead it uses separate meta:
name="DC.Subject" content="keyword1"
name="DC.Subject" content="keyword 2"
name="DC.Subject" content="..."
The HTML meta lang attribute can be used to identify the language for the content, say of an author's name.
The scheme attribute may further qualify the content, as to indicate the kind of DC.Identifier, such as
scheme="ISSN"
scheme="ISBN"
scheme="L/C"
