Description

The ToCback element is a chapter-level ToC element for back matter (Bibliographys, Indexs, and so on).

Processing expectations

Formatted as a displayed block.

In real life, ToCs are usually generated automatically by the presentation system and never have to be represented explicitly in the document source.

Future Changes

The InterfaceDefinition element will be discarded in DocBook V4.0. It will no longer be available in the content model of this element.

Attributes

label

Label specifies an identifying string for presentation purposes.

Generally, an explicit Label attribute is used only if the processing system is incapable of generating the label automatically. If present, the Label is normative; it will used even if the processing system is capable of automatic labelling.

linkend

Linkend points to the associated back matter element.

pagenum

PageNum indicates the page on which the element of backmatter appears in some version of the printed document.
