17.12.3 category (Entry Categorization)

This element specifies the categorization for the parent glossary document entry. This categorization shall not imply any behaviors around the entry, and is only used to organize the set of glossary document entries within an application or user interface (i.e. to disambiguate between two entries with the same entry name (§17.12.13)).

[Example: Consider the following WordprocessingML fragment for the properties of a single glossary document entry:

<w:docPartPr>
<w:category>
…
</w:category>
…
</w:docPartPr>

The category element specifies the categorization applied to the current entry, for the purposes of classification or user interface sorting, for example. end example]
