<p class="XXX annotation"><b>Status:</b> <i>Working draft</i></p>
<p><em>This section is informative.</em></p>
<p>Today's web is built predominantly for human consumption. Even as
machine-readable data begins to permeate the web, it is typically
distributed in a separate file, with a separate format, and very limited
correspondence between the human and machine versions. As a result, web
browsers can provide only minimal assistance to humans in parsing and
processing web data: browsers only see presentation information. RDFa is
intended to solve the problem of machine-readable data in HTML documents.
RDFa provides a set of HTML attributes to augment visual data with
machine-readable hints. Using RDFa, authors may turn their existing
human-visible text and links into machine-readable data without repeating
content.</p>
<h3 id="history"><span class="secno">1.1</span> History</h3>
<p class="XXX annotation"><b>Status:</b> <i>Working draft</i></p>
<p>In early 2004, Mark Birbeck published a document named [<a href=
"#refsXHTMLRDF">XHTMLRDF</a>] via the XHTML2 Working Group wherein he laid
the groundwork for what would eventually become RDFa (The Resource
Description Framework in Attributes).</p>
<p>In 2006, the work was co-sponsored by the Semantic Web Deployment Work
Group, which began to formalize a technology to express semantic data in
XHTML. This technology was successfully developed and reached consensus at
the W3C, later published as an official W3C Recommendation. While HTML
provides a mechanism to express the structure of a document (title,
paragraphs, links), RDFa provides a mechanism to express the meaning in a
document (people, places, events).</p>
<p>The document, titled "RDF in XHTML: Syntax and Processing" [<a href=
"#refsXHTMLRDFA">XHTML+RDFa</a>], defined a set of attributes and rules for
processing those attributes that resulted in the output of machine-readable
semantic data. While the document applied to XHTML, the attributes and
rules were always intended to operate across any tree-based structure
containing attributes on tree nodes (such as HTML4, SVG and ODF).</p>
<p>While RDFa was initially specified for use in XHTML, adoption by a
number of large organizations on the Web spurred RDFa's use in non-XHTML
languages. Its use in HTML4, before an official specification was developed
for those languages, caused concern regarding document conformance.</p>
<p>Over the years, the members of the RDFa Task Force [<a href=
"http://rdfa.info/">RDFaTF</a>] had discussed the possibility of applying
the same attributes and processing rules outlined in the XHTML+RDFa
specification to all HTML family documents. By design, the possibility of a
unified semantic data expression mechanism between all HTML and XHTML
family documents was squarely in the realm of possibility.</p>
<p>This section describes the modifications to the original XHTML+RDFa
specification that permit the use of RDFa in all HTML family documents. By
using the attributes and processing rules described in the XHTML+RDFa
specification and heeding the minor changes in this section, authors can

<p><em>This section is normative.</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/#sec_5.5.">Section 5.5:
Sequence</a>, of the [<a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/">XHTML+RDFa</a>] specification defines a
generic processing model for extracting RDF from a tree-based model. The
method of transforming an input document into a model suited for the RDFa
processing rules is intentionally not defined in the XHTML+RDFa
specification. The method of transformation was intended to be defined in
the implementation language, in this case, this section of the HTML+RDFa
specification.</p>
<p>The HTML5 and XHTML5 DOMs are each a super-set of the tree-based model
on which the RDFa processing rules operate. Therefore, a mapping mechanism
to translate from a DOM to a tree-model is not necessary. The HTML5 and
XHTML5 DOM, or equivalent data structure, should be used as input to the
RDFa processing rules. The normative language for construction of the HTML5
DOM and XHTML5 DOM is contained in the HTML5 specification.</p>

Modifying the Input Document</h3>
<p><em>This section is informative.</em></p>
<p>RDFa's tree-based processing rules, outlined in <a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/#sec_5.5.">Section 5.5: Sequence</a> of
the XHTML+RDFa specification, allow an input document to be automatically
corrected, cleaned-up, re-arranged, or modified in any way that is approved
by the host language prior to processing. For example, element nesting
issues in HTML documents may be corrected before the input document is
translated into the DOM, a valid tree-based model, on which the RDFa
processing rules will operate.</p>
<p>Any mechanism that generates a data structure equivalent to the HTML5 or
XHTML5 DOM, such as the html5lib library, may be used as the mechanism to
construct the tree-based model provided as input to the RDFa processing
rules.</p>

a subset are mandatory:</p>
<ol>
<li>All document conformance requirements stated as mandatory in the
HTML5 specification must be met.</li>
<li>There should be a <code>version</code> attribute on the
<code>html</code> element. The value of the <code>version</code>
attribute should be "HTML+RDFa 1.0" if the document is a non-XML mode
document, or "XHTML+RDFa 1.0" if the document is a XML mode
document.</li>
<li>There may be a <code>link</code> element contained in the

<code>rel</code> attribute and
<code>http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/vocab</code> for the <code>href</code>
attribute.</li>
</ol>
<h3 id="user-agent-conformance"><span class="secno">3.2</span> User Agent

<p>A conforming RDFa user agent must:</p>
<ul>
<li>Conform to all requirements listed in the <span>Conformance

<h2 id="modifications-to-xhtml-rdfa"><span class="secno">4</span>
Modifications to XHTML+RDFa</h2>
<p><em>This section is normative.</em></p>
<p>The [<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/">XHTML+RDFa</a>]
Recommendation is the base document on which this specification builds.
XHTML+RDFa specifies the attributes, in <a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/#rdfa-attributes">Section 2.1: The RDFa
Attributes</a>, and processing model, in <a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/#s_model">Section 5: Processing
Model</a>, for extracting RDF from an XHTML document. This section
specifies changes to the attributes and processing model defined in
XHTML+RDFa in order to support extracting RDF from HTML documents.</p>
<p>The requirements and rules, as specified in XHTML+RDFa and further
modified in this document, apply to all HTML5 documents. The RDFa Processor
operating on HTML and XHTML documents, specifically the resulting DOMs,
must apply the same processing rules for both types of serializations and
DOMs.</p>
<h3 id="specifying-the-language-for-a-literal"><span class=
"secno">4.1</span> Specifying the language for a literal</h3>
<p>The <code>lang</code> attribute must be processed in the same manner as
the <code>xml:lang</code> attribute is in the XHTML+RDFa specification,
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/#sec_5.5.">Section 5.5:
Sequence</a>, step #3.</p>The rules for determining the language of a node
are specified in the section titled <a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/Overview.html#the-lang-and-xml:lang-attributes">
The lang and xml:lang attributes</a> in the HTML5 specification.
<p>If an author is editing an HTML fragment and is unsure of the final
encapsulating MIME type for their markup, it is suggested that the author
specify both <code>lang</code> and <code>xml:lang</code> where the value in
both attributes is exactly the same.</p>
<h3 id="invalid-xmlliteral-values"><span class="secno">4.2</span> Invalid
XMLLiteral values</h3>
<p>When generating literals of type XMLLiteral, the processor must ensure
that the output XMLLiteral is a namespace well-formed XML fragment. A
namespace well-formed XML fragment has the following properties:</p>
<ul>
<li>The XML fragment, when placed inside of a single root element, must
validate as well-formed XML. The normative language that describes a
well-formed XML document is specified in <a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-well-formed">Section 2.1 "Well-Formed
XML Documents"</a> of the XML specification.</li>
<li>A case-insensitive match for the currently active <code>xmlns</code>
attribute as well as all currently active attributes starting with
<code>xmlns:</code> must be preserved in the generated XMLLiteral. This
preservation must be accomplished by placing all active namespaces in
each top-level element in the generated XMLLiteral, taking care to not
over-write pre-existing namespace values.</li>
</ul>If the input is not a namespace well-formed XML fragment, the
processor must transform the input text in a way that ensures the
well-formedness rules described in this section. If a sequence of
characters cannot be transformed into a namespace well-formed XML fragment,
the triple containing the XMLLiteral must not be generated.
<p>An RDFa Processor that transforms the XML fragment must use the <a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/Overview.html#coercing-an-html-dom-into-an-infoset">
Coercing an HTML DOM into an Infoset</a> rules, as specified in the HTML5
specification, prior to generating the triple containing the XMLLiteral.
The serialization algorithm that must be used for generating the XMLLiteral
is normatively defined in the <a href=
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/Overview.html#serializing-xhtml-fragments">Serializing
XHTML Fragments</a> section of the HTML5 specification.</p>
<p>Transformation to a namespace well-formed XML fragment is required
because an application that consumes XMLLiteral data expects that data to
be a namespace well-formed XML fragment.</p>
<p>The transformation requirement does not apply to input data that are
text-only, such as literals that contain a <code>datatype</code> attribute
with an empty value (<code>""</code>), or input data that that contain only
text nodes.</p>
<p>An example transformation demonstrating the preservation of namespace
values is provided below. The &rarr; symbol is used to denote that the line
is a continuation of the previous line and is included purely for the
purposes of readability:</p>
<pre>
&lt;p xmlns:ex="http://example.org/vocab#"
xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"&gt;
Two rectangles (the example markup for them are stored in a triple):
&lt;svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" property="ex:markup" datatype="rdf:XMLLiteral"&gt;
&rarr; &lt;rect width="300" height="100"
&rarr; style="fill:rgb(0,0,255);stroke-width:1; stroke:rgb(0,0,0)"/&gt;
&rarr; &lt;rect width="50" height="50"
&rarr; style="fill:rgb(255,0,0);stroke-width:2;
&rarr; stroke:rgb(0,0,0)"/&gt;&lt;/svg&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
</pre>The markup above should produce the following triple:
<pre>
&lt;&gt;
&lt;http://example.org/vocab#markup&gt;
"&lt;rect xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\" width=\"300\"
&rarr; height=\"100\" style=\"fill:rgb(0,0,255);stroke-width:1; stroke:rgb(0,0,0)\"/&gt;
&rarr; &lt;rect xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/2000/svg\" width=\"50\"
&rarr; height=\"50\" style=\"fill:rgb(255,0,0);stroke-width:2;
&rarr; stroke:rgb(0,0,0)\"/&gt;"^^http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#XMLLiteral
</pre>Note the preservation of the SVG namespace by injecting a new
<code>xmlns</code> attribute. Since the <code>ex</code> and <code>rdf</code>
namespaces are not used in either <code>rect</code> element, they are not
preserved in the XMLLiteral.
<h3 id="xmlns:-prefixed-attributes"><span class="secno">4.3</span>
<code>xmlns:</code>-Prefixed Attributes</h3>
<p class="XXX">While this section outlines xmlns: processing in RDFa, the
support for distributed extensibility in non-XML mode HTML5 (using xmlns
and xmlns:) is still an open issue. This section may be further modified
before Last Call based on progress made on the distributed extensibility
issue.</p>
<p>CURIE prefix mappings specified using attributes prepended with
<code>xmlns:</code> must be processed using the rules specified in <a href=
"">Section 5.4, CURIE and URI Processing,</a> contained in the XHTML+RDFa
specification.</p>
<p>Since CURIE prefix mappings have been specified using
<code>xmlns:</code>, and since HTML attribute names are case-insensitive,
CURIE prefix names declared using the <code>xmlns:</code>attribute-name
pattern <code>xmlns:&lt;PREFIX&gt;="&lt;URI&gt;"</code> should be specified
using only lower-case characters. For example, the text
"<code>xmlns:</code>" and the text in <code>"&lt;PREFIX&gt;"</code> should
be lower-case only. This is to ensure that prefix mappings are interpreted
in the same way between HTML (case-insensitive attribute names) and XHTML
(case-sensitive attribute names) document types.</p>
<h2 id="extensions-to-the-html5-syntax"><span class="secno">5</span>
Extensions to the HTML5 Syntax</h2>
<p><em>This section is normative.</em></p>
<p>There are a few changes that are required to the HTML5 specification in
order to fully support RDFa. The following sub-sections outline the
necessary modifications to the base HTML5 specification.</p>
<h3 id="the-rdfa-attributes-and-valid-values"><span class=
"secno">5.1</span> The RDFa Attributes and Valid Values</h3>
<p>All RDFa attributes and valid values (including CURIEs), as listed in
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/#rdfa-attributes">Section 2.1:
The RDFa Attributes</a>, are conforming when used in an HTML5 or XHTML5
document.</p>
<h3 id="conformance-criteria-for-xmlns:-prefixed-attributes"><span class=
"secno">5.2</span> Conformance Criteria for <code>xmlns:</code>-Prefixed
Attributes</h3>
<p class="XXX">While this section outlines xmlns: conformance criteria for
HTML+RDFa, the support for distributed extensibility in non-XML mode HTML5
(using xmlns and xmlns:) is still an open issue. This section may be
further modified before Last Call based on progress made on the distributed
extensibility issue.</p>
<p>Since RDFa uses attributes starting with <code>xmlns:</code> to specify
CURIE prefixes, it is important that any attribute starting with a
case-insensitive match on the text string "<code>xmlns:</code>" be
preserved in the DOM or other tree-like model that is passed to the RDFa
Processor. While it is specified that HTML5 must preserve these attributes
in the DOM, it must also accept these attributes as conforming in non-XML
HTML5. For documents conforming to this specification, attributes with
names that have the case insensitive prefix "<code>xmlns:</code>" are
conforming in both HTML5 and XHTML5.</p>
