This document mixes HTML and
FL
(a KRL, i.e., a Knowledge Representation Language; it is here used in the
preformatted text parts).
It is an input+backup+presentation file for the
Multi-Source Ontology (MSO).
The MSO i) aligns and extends several ontologies, and
ii) can be extended by Web users via the shared KB server
WebKB-2 and its
shared KB (knowlege base) editing protocols.
In this document, "/^" is used instead of "<" (lien supertype) and
"\." is used instead of ">" (lien subtype).
The ontology in this document is original and in construction.
It is part of
complementary "ontologies on formal languages".
It is also part of a plan to allow the building of
"interfaces/documents that can be fully parameterised by their users".

0. Top-level ontology
1. Visual presentation characteristic/attribute/measure
1.1. Document presentation related characteristic/attribute/measure

1.2. Window related characteristic/attribute/measure
2. Aural presentation characteristic/attribute/measure
The uppermost types below are from the uppermost ontology of structures for KRL models.
When XML/HTML + CSS is used for specifying structural+presentation constraints,
some presetation constraints are directly derived from the XML/HTML content
(instead of solely the CSS specfications), e.g.,
the relative spatial ordering of concrete elements is derived from their
father-child relationship or their place with a list in the DOM.
This is why XSLT is also often needed for presentation purpose only.
In other words, XML/HTML elements are at least partially concrete.
If XML is used as a notation for a KRL, the XML elements are fully concrete.
