Element: directive

Description

Directives are like directions, but can be grouped together with attributes for convenience. This is typically used for tempo markings at the beginning of a piece of music. This element has been deprecated in Version 2.0 in favor of the directive attribute for direction elements. Language names come from ISO 639, with optional country subcodes from ISO 3166.

xml:lang	xs:anySimpleType (union)	No		Attempting to install the relevant ISO 2- and 3-letter codes as the enumerated possible values is probably never going to be a realistic possibility.  See RFC 3066 at http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3066.txt and the IANA registry at http://www.iana.org/assignments/lang-tag-apps.htm for further information.  The union allows for the 'un-declaration' of xml:lang with the empty string.
