Question

All attribute declarations begin with the keyword ____________ followed by the element name, attribute name, attribute type, and default data information.

(a) XML

(b) SGML

(c) ATTLIST

(d) HTML

This question was addressed to me in examination.

Question is taken from Reading a Document Type Definition topic in chapter HTML Fonts, Tags and Elements of HTML

Answer 1

Correct option is (c) ATTLIST

The explanation is: The ATTLIST declarations identify which element types may have attributes, what type of attributes they may be, and what the default value of the attributes are. Syntax is  <!ATTLIST  elementName  attributeName  dataType  default >.  XML and HTML are web markup language used to design and create web pages. SGML stands for Standard Generalized Markup Language.
