containers. For example, the markup:</p><pre class="screen"><section id="foo"><title>Some Title</title>
<para>Some para.</para>
</section></pre><p>might produce:</p><pre class="screen"><div class="section" id="foo">
<h2>Some Title</h2>
<p>Some para.</p>
</div></pre><p>The alternative is to generate anchors:</p><pre class="screen"><div class="section">
<h2><a name="foo"></a>Some Title</h2>
<p>Some para.</p>
</div></pre><p>Because the <code class="sgmltag-attribute">name</code> attribute of
the <a href="http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/a.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">a</code></a> element and the <code class="sgmltag-attribute">id</code>
attribute of other tags are both of type “<span class="quote">ID</span>”, producing both
generates invalid documents.</p><p>As of version 1.50, you can use this switch to control which type of
identifier is generated. For backwards-compatibility, generating
<a href="http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/a.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">a</code></a> anchors is preferred.</p><p>Note: at present, this switch is incompletely implemented.
Disabling ID attributes will suppress them, but enabling ID attributes
will not suppress the anchors.</p></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="draft.watermark.image.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="rn07.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="generate.meta.abstract.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">draft.watermark.image </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> generate.meta.abstract</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
