Handling milestones, specifically page beginning elements (pb) #4

Open pboot opened 1 year ago

pboot commented 1 year ago

The text/annotation repositories should be able to handle milestone elements. The pb element is used to indicate beginning of a new page. Its desired behaviour (for now) is

represent in textflow by [@f:@n]
attach to facsimile (e.g.: click pb brings up new facs)
find related facsimile using @facs attribute pointing to surface element.

We leave out (for now) the question of where a page ends. The milestone functionality is by itself already very useful.

I have generated <page> elements in the divs where <pb> elements occur. Each <page> end at the following <pb> or at the end of the <div> that contains the pb>s. If there is material before the first <pb>, it will not end up in any <page> element.
