IDs and ID References Dialog Box
Use the IDs and ID References dialog box to help manage the IDs and references to IDs in your document. This dialog box contains the following options:
• ID table — Contains all of the IDs in the current document, the number of references to each ID, and the type of element that the ID is associated with. This table has the following columns:
◦ ID — Contains the name of the ID.
◦ References — Contains the number of references to the ID in the document. If the current ID is a duplicate of another ID in the table, this column contains the error message *DUPLICATE*.
◦ Element — Contains the type of element associated with the ID. If there are references to the ID in the document but there is no element associated with the ID, this column contains the error message *MISSING*. If the ID is declared on an element that already has an ID, this column contains the error message *MULTIPLE*.
The table is sorted based on the ID column by default. You can sort the table based on another column by selecting the column heading. Sorting by the References or Element columns brings any error messages in those columns to the top of the table.
If the ID table contains any errors, the number of errors is displayed at the bottom left corner of the dialog box.
• Go To ID — Moves the cursor to the element in the document that contains the selected ID. This button is enabled when you select an ID in the ID table that is not missing from the document.
• Next Reference — Moves the cursor to the next reference to an ID in the document. This button is enabled when you select an ID in the ID table and there are one or more references to the ID after the current cursor location in the document.
• Previous Reference — Moves the cursor to the previous reference to an ID in the document. This button is enabled when you select an ID in the ID table and there are one or more references to the ID before the current cursor location in the document.
• Next Error — Moves the selection in the ID table to the next ID with an error. This button is enabled when the ID table contains errors.
• Refresh — Reloads the ID table. This button is enabled when you make changes to the document after invoking the dialog box.
