InContext Editing NameSpace

This document provides information about the InContext Editing XML namespace.

Adobe® InContext Editing is an online service that makes web content maintenance easy for designers and content editors alike — no software installation or training needed. Web designers can maintain the design integrity of their sites while enabling clients to make their own web updates from virtually any major browser.

InContext Editing uses custom attributes applied to HTML tags to identify InContext Editing regions in a web page. These custom attributes start with 'ice:' and contain the region type and properties. The InContext Editing namespace declaration (xmlns:ice="http://ns.adobe.com/incontextediting) is included in all pages that use InContext Editing functionality and tells the browser that there are attributes that start with 'ice' on the page. This declaration helps prevent conflicts with standard XHTML attributes, or other custom attributes from other name spaces that may be used in the page.

The current list of InContext Editing attributes includes:

• ice:editable
• ice:repeating
• ice:repeatinggroup
• ice:classes

The attributes and their corresponding properties are defined by the InContext Editing custom Document Type Declaration (DTD), available at:
