SimpleSect
is one of the top-level sectioning
elements in a component. There are three types of sectioning elements
in DocBook:
Explicitly numbered sections,
Sect1
…Sect5
, which must be properly nested and
can only be five levels deep.
Recursive Section
s, which are alternative
to the numbered sections and have unbounded depth.
SimpleSect
s, which are terminal.
SimpleSect
s can occur as the “leaf” sections
in either recursive sections or any of the numbered sections, or
directly in components.
None of the sectioning elements is allowed to “float” in a component. You can place paragraphs and other block elements before a section, but you cannot place anything after it.
The important semantic distinction of SimpleSect
elements
is that they never appear in the Table of Contents.
Formatted as a displayed block.
SimpleSect
elements never
appear in the Table of Contents.
Common attributes and common linking attributes.
Specifies an identifying string for presentation purposes
