Description: Extensible Markup Language (XML) Base specifies how base Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) info is to be embedded in XML documents. XML Base defines a single XML attribute to identify a base URI other than the base URI of the document that may be used to interpret relative URI references attached to XML document elements. This standard allows users to explicitly specify a document`s base URI for the purpose of resolving relative URIs in links to external images, applets, form-processing programs, style sheets, and so on.

Users must ensure sensitive data is properly protected in compliance with all VA regulations. Prior to use of this technology, users should check with their supervisor, Information Security Officer (ISO), Facility Chief Information Officer (CIO), or local Office of Information and Technology (OI&T) representative to ensure that all actions are consistent with current VA policies and procedures prior to implementation.
