article:use

Sets the current article for the body of this tag. All article tags that use the current article in the body of this tag will use the article specified here rather than the current article set outside this tag.

All the other tags in this library expect a current article to be set (although some allow you to optionally specify the article to operate on).

To specify the new current article you must set one of the following attributes or attribute combinations:

  • article

  • articleId

  • name

  • name and property

  • source and sourceId

Syntax
<article:use
   article="..."?
   articleId="..."?
   name="..."?
   property="..."?
   source="..."?
   sourceId="..."?>
   ...
</article:use>
