<h2><a name="abstract" id="abstract"></a>Abstract</h2><p>This specification defines the XML Pointer Language (XPointer), the language
to be used as the basis for a fragment identifier for any URI reference that
locates a resource whose Internet media type is one of <code>text/xml</code>, <code>application/xml</code>, <code>text/xml-external-parsed-entity</code>, or <code>application/xml-external-parsed-entity</code>.</p></div><div>
<h2><a name="status" id="status"></a>Status of this Document</h2><p><b>This document has been superceded.</b></p><p>The design described in previous versions of this document has been
factored into a basic framework (<a href="/TR/xptr-framework/">http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-framework/</a>) which defines XPointer schemes and simple "barename" fragment identifiers, and three additional schemes: <a href="/TR/xptr-element/">http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-element/</a>, for addressing elements by their position in the document tree,
<a href="/TR/xptr-xmlns/">http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-xmlns/</a>, for binding namespace
prefixes to namespace name and
<a href="/TR/xptr-xpointer/">http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-xpointer/</a>, for full
XPath-based addressing.</p><p>For information about the requirements that informed development of 
this specification,
see <a href="/TR/NOTE-xptr-req">http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-xptr-req</a>.</p><p>A list of current W3C Recommendations and other technical documents can be
