Description of Entity and Parameter Entity Properties in DTDs

Table 63 shows the properties that an entity or parameter entity can have. It also provides the possible values, and a description for each property.

Table 63. Entity and Parameter Entity Property Descriptions
Property	Allowable Values	Description
`Type`	`Entity` `Parameter Entity`	All entity nodes have this type.
`Name`	`String`	Identifier for this entity.
`Location`	`External or Internal`	An external location indicates that the value of the entity is in a file that is outside the DTD file. An internal location indicates that the value of the entity is defined in the `Value` property of this entity node.
`Value`	`String`	If the value of the `Location` property is `Internal`, this property specifies the value of the entity. If the value of the `Location` property is `External`, you cannot specify this property.
`Public ID`	`String`	String that some parsers can resolve to a file location. Stylus Studio ignores any value you specify.
`System ID`	`String`	Path or URI for a file that contains the value of the entity.
`Parsed`	`True or False`	Indicates whether the entity value is parsed XML. A parameter entity does not have this property.
