XLink Reference Manual
XLink, or XML Linking Language, is an XML markup language recommended by the W3C that provides methods for creating internal and external links within XML documents, as well as metadata associated with these links.
XLink offers two types of hyperlinks that can be used in XML documents: simple links and extended links. Simple links connect two resources, similar to HTML links and IMG links. Extended links can connect any number of resources.
