Description
A question
in a qandaentry
poses a question or states a problem that is addressed by the following
answer
(s). The answer
s are
optional (some questions have no answers) and may be repeated (some
questions have more than one answer).
Processing expectations
The question
s are frequently introduced with
a label, such as “A:”. If a question
has a label
child element, the content of that
label
is used as the label for the
question
. The defaultlabel
attribute on the nearest
ancestor qandaset
of a question
can be used to indicate that a processing application should
automatically generate a label for the
question
