application-specific. OLink provides a mechanism for
establishing links across documents, where ID/IDREF linking is not
possible and URI-based linking may be inappropriate.
In general terms, the strategy employed by OLink is
to point to the target document by URI, and point into that document
in some application-specific way.
Formatted inline.
OLink points to its target primarily with the
TargetDoc attribute.
TargetDoc is a URI that identifies a target
document.
The semantics of the link are controlled by three other attributes:
TargetPtr,
LocalInfo, and
Type.
The TargetPtr
attribute points into the document in some fashion.
The values of 
LocalInfo and
Type may also influence the application.
For example, if the TargetPtr describes some sort of query, 
LocalInfo might hold the query text.
Linking elements must not be nested within other linking elements (including themselves). The processing of nested linking elements is undefined.
