Usage Guidelines

NEXTID suggests the next identifier an authoring tool should use for a new anchor.
It lives in the HEAD.
The N attribute holds the suggested value.

Common Mistakes

It is not required for normal pages.
Authors normally choose anchor names directly.

Example Code

<HEAD>
<NEXTID N="z42">
<TITLE>Converted Page</TITLE>
</HEAD>

Authoring Note

Write the document first, then test it in a graphical browser and a text browser. The page should remain understandable if images fail, colours are ignored, or the browser uses its own fonts.
