xlink:actuate

A linking element's xlink:actuate attribute has two possible values:

<IMAGE 
  xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/XML/XLink/0.9" 
       xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="logo.gif"
       xlink:actuate="auto"/>

Like all attributes in valid documents, the actuate attribute must be declared in the DTD in a <!ATTLIST> declaration for the link elements in which it appears. For example:

<!ELEMENT IMAGE EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST IMAGE 
 xmlns:xlink CDATA #FIXED "http://www.w3.org/XML/XLink/0.9"
  xlink:type CDATA #FIXED "simple"
  xlink:href CDATA #REQUIRED
  xlink:show    (new | replace | parsed) #IMPLIED "parsed"
  xlink:actuate (user | auto)            #IMPLIED "auto"
