</h2>

<p>The Resource Description Framework
(<abbr title="Resource Description Framework">RDF</abbr>) is a 
general-purpose language for representing information in the Web.</p>

<p>This document defines an
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006">XML</a>
syntax for RDF called RDF/XML in terms of
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/">Namespaces in XML</a>,
the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-infoset-20011024/">XML Information Set</a>
and <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xmlbase-20010627/">XML Base</a>.
The <a href="#section-Infoset-Grammar">formal grammar</a> for the syntax
is annotated with actions generating triples of the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-rdf-graph">RDF graph</a>
as defined in
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/">RDF Concepts and Abstract Syntax</a>.
The triples are written using the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/#ntriples">N-Triples</a>
RDF graph serializing format which enables more precise recording of
the mapping in a machine processable form.  The mappings are
recorded as tests cases, gathered and published in
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/">RDF Test Cases</a>.</p>

<p>This document defines the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006">XML</a>
<a href="#ref-xml">[XML]</a>
syntax for RDF graphs
which was originally defined in the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-rdf-syntax-19990222/">RDF Model &amp; Syntax</a> <a href="#ref-rdfms">[RDF-MS]</a> W3C
Recommendation.  Subsequent implementations of this syntax and
comparison of the resulting RDF graphs have shown that there was
ambiguity &mdash; implementations generated different graphs and certain
syntax forms were not widely implemented.</p>

<p>This document revises the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-rdf-syntax-19990222/#grammar">original RDF/XML grammar</a>
in terms of
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-infoset-20011024/">XML Information Set</a>
<a href="#ref-xml-infoset">[INFOSET]</a> information items which moves
away from the rather low-level details of XML, such as particular
forms of empty elements.  This allows the grammar to be more
precisely recorded and the mapping from the XML syntax to the RDF
Graph more clearly shown.  The mapping to the RDF graph is done by
emitting statements in the form defined in the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/#ntriples">N-Triples</a>
section of
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/">RDF Test Cases</a> <a href="#ref-rdf-tests">[RDF-TESTS]</a>
which creates an RDF graph, that has semantics defined by
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-mt-20040210/">RDF Semantics</a> <a href="#ref-rdf-semantics">[RDF-SEMANTICS]</a>.

<h2>
<a id="section-Syntax" name="section-Syntax">2 An XML Syntax for RDF</a>
</h2>

<p>This section introduces the RDF/XML syntax, describes how it
encodes RDF graphs and explains this with examples.  If there is any
conflict between this informal description and the formal description
of the syntax and grammar in sections
<a href="#section-Data-Model">6 Syntax Data Model</a> and
<a href="#section-Infoset-Grammar">7 RDF/XML Grammar</a>, the
latter two sections take precedence.
</p>


<h3><a id="section-Syntax-intro" name="section-Syntax-intro">2.1 Introduction</a></h3>

<p>The
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/">RDF Concepts and Abstract Syntax</a> <a href="#ref-rdf-concepts">[RDF-CONCEPTS]</a>
defines the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#section-data-model">RDF Graph data model</a> (Section 3.1)
and the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#section-Graph-syntax">RDF Graph abstract syntax</a> (Section 6).
Along with the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-mt-20040210/">RDF Semantics</a> <a href="#ref-rdf-semantics">[RDF-SEMANTICS]</a>
this provides an abstract syntax with a formal semantics for it.
The RDF graph has
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-node">nodes</a>
and labeled directed <em>arcs</em>
that link pairs of nodes and this is represented as a set of 
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-rdf-triple">RDF triples</a>
where each triple contains a
<em>subject node</em>, <em>predicate</em> and <em>object node</em>.
Nodes are
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>, 
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-literal">RDF literals</a>
or are <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-blank-node">blank nodes</a>.
Blank nodes may be given
a document-local, non-<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a> identifier called a
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-blank-node-id">blank node identifier</a>.
Predicates are
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>
and can be interpreted as either a relationship between the two
nodes or as defining an attribute value (object node) for some
subject node.</p>

<p>In order to encode the graph in XML, the nodes and predicates have to be
represented in XML terms &mdash; element names, attribute names, element contents
and attribute values.
RDF/XML uses XML
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#NT-QName">QNames</a>
as defined in <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/">Namespaces in XML</a> <a href="#ref-namespaces">[XML-NS]</a>
to represent
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>.
All QNames have a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#dt-NSName">namespace name</a> which is a URI reference
and a short
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#NT-LocalPart">local name</a>.
In addition, QNames can either have a short 
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#NT-Prefix">prefix</a>
or be declared with the default namespace declaration and have none (but
still have a namespace name)</p>

<p>The
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a>
represented by a QName is determined by appending the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#NT-LocalPart">local name</a>
part of the QName after the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#dt-NSName">namespace name</a> (URI reference) part of the QName.
This is used to shorten the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>
of all predicates and some nodes.
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a> identifying
subject and object nodes can also be stored as XML attribute values.
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-literal">RDF literals</a>, 
which can only be object nodes,
become either XML element text content or XML attribute values.</p>

<p>A graph can be considered a collection of paths of the form node,
predicate arc, node, predicate arc, node, predicate arc, ... node
which cover the entire graph. In RDF/XML these turn into sequences of
elements inside elements which alternate between elements for nodes
and predicate arcs.  This has been called a series of node/arc
stripes.  The node at the start of the sequence turns into the
outermost element, the next predicate arc turns into a child element,
and so on.  The stripes generally start at the top of an RDF/XML
document and always begin with nodes.
</p>

<p>Several RDF/XML examples are given in the following sections
building up to complete RDF/XML documents.  <a href="#example7">Example 7</a>
is the first complete RDF/XML document.</p>


<h3><a id="section-Syntax-node-property-elements" name="section-Syntax-node-property-elements">2.2 Node Elements and Property Elements</a></h3>

<a id="figure1" name="figure1">Figure 1: Graph for RDF/XML Example</a> (<a href="figure1.svg">SVG version</a>)
</div>

<p>An RDF graph is given in <a href="#figure1">Figure 1</a>
where the nodes are represented as ovals and contain their
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>
where they have them, all the predicate arcs are labeled with
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>
and
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-plain-literal">plain literal</a>
nodes have been written in rectangles.</p>


<p>If we follow one node, predicate arc ... , node path through the
graph shown in <a href="#figure2">Figure 2</a>:

<a id="figure2" name="figure2">Figure 2: One Path Through the Graph</a> (<a href="figure2.svg">SVG version</a>)
</div>

<p>The left hand side of the <a href="#figure2">Figure 2</a> graph corresponds to the node/predicate arc stripes:</p>

<ol>
<li>Node with <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a> <code>http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-syntax-grammar</code></li>
<li>Predicate Arc labeled with <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a> <code>http://example.org/terms/editor</code></li>
<li>Node with no <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a></li>
<li>Predicate Arc labeled with <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a>  <code>http://example.org/terms/homePage</code></li>

</ol>

<p>In RDF/XML, the sequence of 5 nodes and predicate arcs on
the left hand side of <a href="#figure2">Figure 2</a> corresponds to 
the usage of five XML elements of two types, for the graph nodes and
predicate arcs. These are conventionally called <em>node elements</em> and
<em>property elements</em> respectively.  In the striping shown in
<a href="#example1">Example 1</a>, <code>rdf:Description</code> is the
node element (used three times for the three nodes) and
<code>ex:editor</code> and <code>ex:homePage</code> are the two
property elements.

<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>
(and others that are not) and this can be added
to the RDF/XML using the <code>rdf:about</code> attribute on node
elements to give the result in <a href="#example2">Example 2</a>:</p>

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-multiple-property-elements" name="section-Syntax-multiple-property-elements">2.3 Multiple Property Elements</a></h3>

<p>There are several abbreviations that can be used to make common
uses easier to write down.  In particular, it is common that a
subject node in the RDF graph has multiple outgoing predicate arcs.  RDF/XML
provides an abbreviation for the corresponding syntax when a node
element about a resource has multiple property elements. This can be
abbreviated by using multiple child property elements inside the node
element describing the subject node.</p>

<p>Taking <a href="#example3">Example 3</a>, there  are
two node elements that can take multiple property elements.
The subject node with URI reference
<code>http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-syntax-grammar</code>
has property elements <code>ex:editor</code> and <code>ex:title</code>
and the node element for the blank node can take <code>ex:homePage</code>
and <code>ex:fullName</code>.  This abbreviation
gives the result shown in <a href="#example4">Example 4</a>
(this example does show that there is a single blank node):</p>

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-empty-property-elements" name="section-Syntax-empty-property-elements">2.4 Empty Property Elements</a></h3>

<p>When a predicate arc in an RDF graph points to an object node which has no
further predicate arcs, which appears in RDF/XML as an empty node element
<code>&lt;rdf:Description rdf:about="..."&gt;</code>
<code>&lt;/rdf:Description&gt;</code>
(or <code>&lt;rdf:Description rdf:about="..." /&gt;</code>)
this form can be shortened.  This is done by using the 
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a>
of the object node as the value of an XML attribute <code>rdf:resource</code>
on the containing property element and making the property element empty.
</p>

<p>In this example, the property element <code>ex:homePage</code>
contains an empty node element with the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a>
<code>http://purl.org/net/dajobe/</code>.  This can be replaced with
the empty property element form giving the result shown in

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-property-attributes" name="section-Syntax-property-attributes">2.5 Property Attributes</a></h3>

<p>When a property element's content is string literal,
it may be possible to use it as an XML attribute on the
containing node element.
This can be done for multiple properties on the same node element
only if the property element name is not repeated
(required by XML &mdash; attribute names are unique on an XML element)
and any in-scope <code>xml:lang</code> on the
property element's string literal (if any) are the same (see <a href="#section-Syntax-languages">Section 2.7</a>)
This abbreviation is known as a <em>Property Attribute</em>
and can be applied to any node element.</p>

<p>This abbreviation can also be used when the property element is
<code>rdf:type</code> and it has an <code>rdf:resource</code> attribute
the value of which is interpreted as a
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a> object node.</p>

<p>In <a href="#example5">Example 5</a>:,
there are two property elements with string literal content,
the <code>dc:title</code> and <code>ex:fullName</code>
property elements.  These can be replaced with property attributes
giving the result shown in <a href="#example6">Example 6</a>:</p>

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-complete-document" name="section-Syntax-complete-document">2.6 Completing the Document: Document Element and XML Declaration</a></h3>

<p>To create a complete RDF/XML document, the serialization of the
graph into XML is usually contained inside an <code>rdf:RDF</code>
XML element which becomes the top-level XML document element.
Conventionally the <code>rdf:RDF</code> element is also used to
declare the XML namespaces that are used, although that is not
required.  When there is only one top-level node element inside
<code>rdf:RDF</code>, the <code>rdf:RDF</code> can be omitted
although any XML namespaces must still be declared.</p>

<p>The XML specification also permits an XML declaration at
the top of the document with the XML version and possibly the XML
content encoding.  This is optional but recommended.</p>

<p>Completing the RDF/XML could be done for any of the correct
complete graph examples from
<a href="#example4">Example 4</a> onwards but taking the smallest
<a href="#example6">Example 6</a> and adding the final components,
gives a complete RDF/XML representation of the original
<a href="#figure1">Figure 1</a> graph

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-typed-nodes" name="section-Syntax-typed-nodes">2.13 Typed Node Elements</a></h3>

<p>It is common for RDF graphs to have <code>rdf:type</code> predicates
from subject nodes.  These are conventionally called <em>typed
nodes</em> in the graph, or <em>typed node elements</em> in the
RDF/XML.  RDF/XML allows this triple to be expressed more concisely.
by replacing the <code>rdf:Description</code> node element name with
the namespaced-element corresponding to the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a> of the value of
the type relationship.  There may, of course, be multiple <code>rdf:type</code>
predicates but only one can be used in this way, the others must remain as
property elements or property attributes.
</p>

<p>The typed node elements are commonly used in RDF/XML with the built-in
classes in the <a href="#section-Namespace">RDF vocabulary</a>:
<code>rdf:Seq</code>, <code>rdf:Bag</code>, <code>rdf:Alt</code>,
<code>rdf:Statement</code>, <code>rdf:Property</code> and

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-ID-xml-base" name="section-Syntax-ID-xml-base">2.14 Abbreviating URIs: <code>rdf:ID</code> and <code>xml:base</code></a></h3>

<p>RDF/XML allows further abbreviating <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a> in XML attributes in two
ways.  The XML Infoset provides a base URI attribute <code>xml:base</code>
that sets the base URI for resolving relative <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>, otherwise the base URI is that of the document.  The base URI applies to
all RDF/XML attributes that deal with <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a> which are <code>rdf:about</code>,
<code>rdf:resource</code>, <code>rdf:ID</code>
and <code>rdf:datatype</code>.</p>

<p>The <code>rdf:ID</code> attribute on a node element (not property
element, that has another meaning) can be used instead of
<code>rdf:about</code> and gives a relative <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a> equivalent to <code>#</code>
concatenated with the <code>rdf:ID</code> attribute value.  So for
example if <code>rdf:ID="name"</code>, that would be equivalent
to <code>rdf:about="#name"</code>.  <code>rdf:ID</code> provides an additional
check since the same <em>name</em> can only appear once in the
scope of an <code>xml:base</code> value (or document, if none is given),
so is useful for defining a set of distinct,
related terms relative to the same <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a>.</p>

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-list-elements" name="section-Syntax-list-elements">2.15 Container Membership Property Elements: <code>rdf:li</code> and <code>rdf:_</code><em>n</em></a></h3>

<p>RDF has a set of container membership properties
and corresponding property elements that are mostly used with
instances of the
<code>rdf:Seq</code>, <code>rdf:Bag</code> and <code>rdf:Alt</code>
classes which may be written as typed node elements.  The list properties are
<code>rdf:_1</code>, <code>rdf:_2</code> etc. and can be written
as property elements or property attributes as shown in
<a href="#example17">Example 17</a>.  There is an <code>rdf:li</code>
special property element that is equivalent to
<code>rdf:_1</code>, <code>rdf:_2</code> in order,
explained in detail in <a href="#section-List-Expand">section 7.4</a>.
The mapping to the container membership properties is
always done in the order that the <code>rdf:li</code> special
property elements appear in XML &mdash; the document order is significant.
The equivalent RDF/XML to <a href="#example17">Example 17</a> written
in this form is shown in <a href="#example18">Example 18</a>.

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-parsetype-Collection" name="section-Syntax-parsetype-Collection">2.16 Collections: <code>rdf:parseType="Collection"</code></a></h3>

<p>RDF/XML allows an <code>rdf:parseType="Collection"</code>
attribute on a property element to let it contain multiple node
elements.  These contained node elements give the set of subject
nodes of the collection.  This syntax form corresponds to a set of
triples connecting the collection of subject nodes, the exact triples
generated are described in detail in
<a href="#parseTypeCollectionPropertyElt">Section 7.2.19 Production parseTypeCollectionPropertyElt</a>.
The collection construction is always done in the order that the node
elements appear in the XML document.  Whether the order of the
collection of nodes is significant is an application issue and not
defined here.

<h3><a id="section-Syntax-reifying" name="section-Syntax-reifying">2.17 Reifying Statements: <code>rdf:ID</code></a></h3>

<p>The <code>rdf:ID</code> attribute can be used on a property
element to reify the triple that it generates (See
<a href="#section-Reification">section 7.3 Reification Rules</a> for the
full details).  
The identifier for the triple should be constructed as a
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a> 
made from the relative URI reference
<code>#</code> concatenated with the <code>rdf:ID</code> attribute
value, resolved against the in-scope base URI.  So for example if
<code>rdf:ID="triple"</code>, that would be equivalent to the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI reference</a>
formed from relative URI reference <code>#triple</code> against the base URI.
Each (<code>rdf:ID</code> attribute value, base URI)
pair has to be unique in an RDF/XML document, 
see <a href="#constraint-id">constraint-id</a>.
</p>

<p><a href="#example20">Example 20</a> shows a <code>rdf:ID</code>

When the graph is written in a syntax such as RDF/XML, these
blank nodes may need graph-local identifiers and a syntax
in order to preserve this distinction.  These local identifiers are called
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-blank-node-id">blank node identifiers</a>

<p>If no blank node identifier is given explicitly as an

generated (using generated-blank-node-id, see section <a href="#section-Infoset-Grammar-Action">6.3.3</a>).
Such generated blank node
identifiers must not clash with any blank node identifiers derived
from <code>rdf:nodeID</code> attribute values.  This can be
implemented by any method that preserves the distinct identity of all
the blank nodes in the graph, that is, the same blank node identifier
is not given for different blank nodes.  One possible method would be
to add a constant prefix to all the <code>rdf:nodeID</code> attribute
values and ensure no generated blank node identifiers ever used that

<h2>
<a id="section-Data-Model" name="section-Data-Model">6 Syntax Data Model</a>
</h2>

<p>This document specifies the syntax of RDF/XML as a grammar on an
alphabet of symbols. The symbols are called <em>events</em> in the
style of the <a href="#ref-xpath">[XPATH]</a>&#160;
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#infoset">Information Set Mapping</a>.
A sequence of events is normally derived from an XML document, in
which case they are in document order as defined below in 
<a href="#section-Infoset-Mapping">Section 6.2 Information Set Mapping</a>.
The sequence these events form are intended to be similar to the sequence
of events produced by the <a href="#ref-sax">[SAX2]</a> XML API from
the same XML document.  Sequences of events may be checked against
the grammar to determine whether they are or are not syntactically
well-formed RDF/XML.</p>

<p>The grammar productions may include actions which fire when the
production is recognized.  Taken together these actions define a
transformation from any syntactically well-formed RDF/XML sequence of
events into an RDF graph represented in the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/#ntriples">N-Triples</a>
language.</p>

<p>The model given here illustrates one way to create a representation of
an <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-rdf-graph">RDF Graph</a>
from an RDF/XML document.  It does not mandate any implementation
method &mdash; any other method that results in a representation of the same
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-rdf-graph">RDF Graph</a>
may be used.</p>

<p>In particular:</p>
<ul>
<li>This specification permits any
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#implementation-note">representation</a>
of an RDF graph (see <a href="#ref-rdf-concepts">[RDF-CONCEPTS]</a>);
in particular, it does not require the use of
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/#ntriples">N-Triples</a>.</li>
<li>This specification does not require the use of
<a href="#ref-xpath">[XPATH]</a> or <a href="#ref-sax">[SAX2]</a></li>
<li>This specification places no constraints on the order in which
software transforming RDF/XML into a representation of a graph,
constructs the representation of the graph.</li>
<li>Software transforming RDF/XML into a representation of a graph
MAY eliminate duplicate predicate arcs.</li>
</ul>

<p>The syntax does not support non-well-formed XML documents, nor
documents that otherwise do not have an XML Information Set; for
example, that do not conform to
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/">Namespaces in XML</a>
<a href="#ref-namespaces">[XML-NS]</a>.
</p>

<p>The Infoset requires support for
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xmlbase-20010627/">XML Base</a> <a href="#ref-xml-base">[XML-BASE]</a>.
RDF/XML uses the information item property [base URI], discussed in
<a href="#section-baseURIs">section 5.3</a>
</p>

<p>This specification requires an
XML Information Set <a href="#ref-xml-infoset">[INFOSET]</a>
which supports at least the following information items and
properties for RDF/XML:</p>

<dl>
<dt><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-infoset/#infoitem.document">document information item</a></dt>
<dd>[document element], [children], [base URI]</dd>

<dt><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-infoset/#infoitem.character">character information item</a></dt>
<dd>[character code]</dd>
</dl>

<p>There is no mapping of the following items to data model events:</p>
<dl>
<dt><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-infoset/#infoitem.pi">processing instruction information item</a></dt>
<dt><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-infoset/#infoitem.rse">unexpanded entity reference information item</a></dt>

</dl>

<p>Other information items and properties have no mapping to
syntax data model events.
</p>

<p>Element information items with reserved XML Names
(See <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#dt-name">Name</a>
in <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006">XML 1.0</a>)
are not mapped to data model element events.  These are all those
with property [prefix] beginning with <code>xml</code> (case
independent comparison) and all those with [prefix] property
having no value and which have [local name] beginning with
<code>xml</code> (case independent comparison).
</p>

<p>All information items contained inside XML elements matching the
<a href="#parseTypeLiteralPropertyElt">parseTypeLiteralPropertyElt</a>
production form
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-rdf-XMLLiteral">XML literals</a>
and do not follow this mapping.  See
<a href="#parseTypeLiteralPropertyElt">parseTypeLiteralPropertyElt</a>
for further information.</p>

<p>This section is intended to satisfy the requirements for
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-infoset/#conformance">Conformance</a>
in the <a href="#ref-xml-infoset">[INFOSET]</a> specification.
It specifies the information items and properties that are needed
to implement this specification.
</p>


<h3>
<a id="section-Nodes" name="section-Nodes">6.1 Events</a>
</h3>

<p>There are nine types of event defined in the following subsections.
Most events are constructed from an Infoset information item (except
for <a href="#section-identifier-node">URI reference</a>,
<a href="#section-blank-nodeid-event">blank node</a>,
<a href="#section-literal-node">plain literal</a> and
<a href="#section-typed-literal-node">typed literal</a>).  The effect
of an event constructor is to create a new event with a unique identity,
distinct from all other events.  Events have accessor operations on them
and most have the <em>string-value</em> accessor that may be a static value
or computed.</p>


<h3>
<a id="section-root-node" name="section-root-node">6.1.1 Root Event</a>
</h3>

<p>Constructed from a

<dl>
<dt><span class="termdef"><a id="eventterm-root-document-element" name="eventterm-root-document-element">document-element</a></span><br /></dt>
<dd>Set to the value of document information item property [document-element].</dd>

</p>


<dl>
  <dt><span class="termdef"><a id="eventterm-element-local-name" name="eventterm-element-local-name">local-name</a></span><br /></dt>

  <dd><p>Made from the value of element information item property [attributes] which is a set of attribute information items.</p>

  <p>If this set contains an attribute information item <code>xml:lang</code> (
  [namespace name] property with the value 
  "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" and
  [local name] property value "lang")
  it is removed from the set of attribute information items and the 
 <a href="#eventterm-element-language" class="termref"><span class="arrow">·</span>language<span class="arrow">·</span></a> accessor is set to the
  [normalized-value] property of the attribute information item.</p>

  <p>All remaining reserved XML Names
  (See <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#dt-name">Name</a>
  in <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006">XML 1.0</a>)

  beginning with <code>xml</code> (case independent
  comparison) and all attribute information items with [prefix]
  property having no value and which have [local name] beginning with
  <code>xml</code> (case independent comparison) are removed.
  Note that the [base URI] accessor is computed by XML Base before any
  <code>xml:base</code> attribute information item is deleted.</p>

  <p>The remaining set of attribute information items are then used

   SHOULD NOT use these unqualified attributes and applications MAY
   choose to warn when the unqualified form is seen in a document.</p>

   <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-URI-reference">RDF URI references</a>
   from different XML attributes.  This can cause ambiguity in the
   grammar when matching attribute events (such as when
   <code>rdf:about</code> and <code>about</code> XML attributes are
   both present).  Documents that have this are illegal.

<a id="section-Infoset-Grammar-Notation" name="section-Infoset-Grammar-Notation">6.3 Grammar Notation</a>
</h3>

<p>The following notation is used to describe matching the sequence
of data model events as given in <a href="#section-Data-Model">Section 6</a>
and the actions to perform for the matches.
The RDF/XML grammar is defined in terms of mapping from these matched
data model events to triples, using notation of the form:</p>

<blockquote>
<div class="productionOuter"><div class="productionInner"><p>
number <em>event-type</em> <em>event-content</em>
</p></div></div>

<div>
<em>action</em>...
<div class="ntripleOuter"><div class="ntripleInner"><p>
<code>
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/#ntriples">N-Triples</a>
</code>
</p></div></div>
</div>
</blockquote>

<p>where the <em>event-content</em> is an expression matching
<em>event-types</em> (as defined in <a href="#section-Nodes">Section 6.1</a>),
using notation given in the following sections.
The number is used for reference purposes.
The grammar <em>action</em> may include generating
new triples to the graph, written in
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-testcases-20040210/#ntriples">N-Triples</a>
format.

<h4><a id="start" name="start">7.2.1 Grammar start</a></h4>

<p>If the RDF/XML is a standalone XML document
(identified by presentation as an
application/rdf+xml <a href="#section-MIME-Type">RDF MIME type</a> object,
or by some other means) then the grammar may start with
production <a href="#doc">doc</a> or
production <a href="#nodeElement">nodeElement</a>.</p>

<p>If the content is known to be RDF/XML by context, such as when
RDF/XML is embedded inside other XML content, then the grammar
can either start 
at <a href="#section-element-node">Element Event</a>&#160;
<a href="#RDF">RDF</a>
(only when an element is legal at that point in the XML)
or at production <a href="#nodeElementList">nodeElementList</a>
(only when element content is legal, since this is a list of elements).
For such embedded RDF/XML, the
<a href="#eventterm-element-base-uri" class="termref"><span class="arrow">·</span>base-uri<span class="arrow">·</span></a>
value on the outermost element must be initialized from the containing
XML since no
<a href="#section-root-node">Root Event</a>&#160; will be available.
Note that if such embedding occurs, the grammar may be entered
several times but no state is expected to be preserved.

<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/#dfn-rdf-graph">RDF Graphs</a>
as defined in
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-concepts-20040210/">RDF Concepts and Abstract Syntax</a>
that cannot be serialized in RDF/XML. These are those that:</p>

<dl>
  <dt>Use property names that cannot be turned into XML namespace-qualified names.<br /></dt>
  <dd>An XML namespace-qualified name
  (<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/#dt-qname">QName</a>)
  has restrictions on the legal characters such that not all property URIs
  can be expressed as these names.
  It is recommended that implementors of RDF serializers, in order to
  break a URI into a namespace name and a local name, split it after
  the last XML non-<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/#NT-NCName">NCName</a>
  character, ensuring that the first character of the name is a
  <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#NT-Letter">Letter</a> or '_'.
  If the URI ends in a
  non-<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/#NT-NCName">NCName</a>
  character then throw a "this graph cannot be serialized in RDF/XML"
  exception or error.
  </dd>

  <dt>Use inappropriate reserved names as properties<br /></dt>
  <dd>For example, a property with the same URI as any of the
  <a href="#syntaxTerms">syntaxTerms</a> production.
  </dd>

</dl>

<div class="note"><p><strong>Implementation Note (Informative):</strong>
When an RDF graph is serialized to RDF/XML and has an XML Schema
Datatype (XSD), it SHOULD be written in a form that does not require
whitespace processing.  XSD support is NOT required by RDF or RDF/XML
so this is optional.
</p></div>


<h2>
<a id="section-rdf-in-HTML" name="section-rdf-in-HTML">9 Using RDF/XML with HTML and XHTML</a>
</h2>

<p>If RDF/XML is embedded inside HTML or XHTML this can
add many new elements and attributes, many of which will not be
in the appropriate DTD.  This embedding causes validation against the DTD to fail.
The obvious solution of changing or extending the DTD is not practical
for most uses. This problem has been analyzed extensively by Sean B. Palmer in
<a href="http://infomesh.net/2002/rdfinhtml/">RDF in HTML: Approaches</a>
<a href="#ref-rdf-in-xhtml">[RDF-IN-XHTML]</a>
and it concludes that there is no single embedding 
method that satisfies all applications and remains simple.
</p>

<p>The recommended approach is to not embed RDF/XML in HTML/XHTML but
rather to use <code>&lt;link&gt;</code> element in the <code>&lt;head&gt;</code>
element of the HTML/HTML to point at a separate RDF/XML document.
This approach has been used for several years by the
<a href="http://www.dublincore.org/">Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI)</a>
on its Web site.</p>

<p>To use this technique, the <code>&lt;link&gt;</code> element
<code>href</code> should point at the URI of the RDF/XML content
and the <code>type</code> attribute should be used with the value of
<code>"application/rdf+xml"</code>, the proposed MIME type for
RDF/XML, see <a href="#section-MIME-Type">Section 4</a></p>

<p>The value of the <code>rel</code> attribute may also be set to
indicate the relationship; this is an application dependent value.
The DCMI has used and recommended <code>rel="meta"</code> when linking
in <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2731.txt">RFC 2731 &mdash; Encoding Dublin Core Metadata in HTML</a><a href="#ref-rfc2731">[RFC-2731]</a> however
<code>rel="alternate"</code> may also be appropriate.
See
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/types.html#type-links">HTML 4.01 link types</a>,
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstraction.html#dt_LinkTypes">XHTML Modularization &mdash; LinkTypes</a>

<p>This is an example schema in RELAX&#160;NG Compact (for ease of reading)
for RDF/XML.   Applications can also use the
<a href="rdfxml.rng">RELAX&#160;NG XML version</a>.
These formats are described in

<div class="note"><p><strong>Note:</strong>
The RNGC schema has been updated to attempt to match the grammar but
