A Formal Public Identifier (FPI) is a short piece of specially formatted text that may be used to uniquely identify a product, specification or document. One of their most common uses is as part of document type definitions, but they are also used in the vCard and iCalendar formats to identify the software product that has generated data. More recently, URIs and UUIDs are usually used to uniquely identify objects. FPIs have become a legacy system. == Syntax == An example identifier " -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" can be broken down into two parts: the owner identifier which indicates the issuer of the FPI, and the text identifier which indicates the particular document or object the FPI identifies.〔http://xml.coverpages.org/tauber-fpi.html〕 In the example, the owner identifier is "-//W3C" and the text identifier is "DTD HTML 4.01//EN". The two parts are separated by a double slash.Owner identifiers that are prefixed with " -//" indicate unregistered owners. (The W3C is notable for not having registered its FPI name.) Registered identifiers are prefixed with "+//" and a small number of identifiers assigned by ISO do not require a prefix at all.Registered domain names may be used as owner identifiers.〔http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3151.txt〕 For example, the owner of example.net could issue FPIs using the owner identifier "+//IDN example.net".Text identifiers can be broken down into the class, description and language. In this case the class is " DTD", indicating that the FPI represents a document type definition; the description is "HTML 4.01"; and the language is "EN" which suggests that the document type definition is written in English (though documents conforming to the DTD do not need to be in English). The class is separated from the description using a space character; the description is separated from the language using a double slash. The text identifier may optionally contain a version indicator after the language, also separated by a double slash.抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Formal Public Identifier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
