a placeholder injection xml that represents that entity
a reference to things stored within Grimories
A reference that is replaced by an entity, shown as: &entity_name; or %entity_name; the ampersand is used for general entities (referenced in the document element); the percent sign is used for parameter entities (typically referenced in the document type declaration).
Markup that indicates a location in a document where the content of an entity should be included.
A reference to an entity that is substituted for the reference when the XML document is parsed. It may reference a predefined entity like < or it may reference one that is defined in the DTD. In the XML data, the reference could be to an entity that is defined in the local subset of the DTD or to an external XML file (an external entity). The DTD can also carve out a segment of DTD specifications and give it a name so that it can be reused (included) at multiple points in the DTD by defining a parameter entity.
The usage of an entity in a document or DTD. An entity reference consists of an ampersand, followed by an entity name, followed by a semicolon, such as ™ for example.
A string which "calls" or refers to an entity; these begin with an ampersand and end with a semi-colon.
a mnemonic or numeric string used as a reference to the content of a declared entity (eg., "&" for "&", "<" for "", "©" for "©".)
a mnemonic string used as a reference to the content of a declared entity (e.g., "&" for "&", "<" for "", "©" for "©".)
XML structural construct. Acts as a placeholder for the content author, and the XML parser places the actual content at each reference site. To include an entity reference, you first insert an ampersand (&) and then enter the entity name followed by a semicolon (;), as follows: & YourEntityName;. Then, when the line is processed, the entity will be replaced with the entity's content. It is used in much the same way as a macro.
