Note, that particular ID, file or link definition cannot be quoted. Text to link cannot contain any HTML tag, even < and > characters are forbidden.

Furthermore, every tag can be enriched by adding appropriate HTML attributes vith values after particular ID, file or link definition. This is especially useful with <flash> tag, since it would not work without width and height attributes.

Please note, that such attributes with their values cannot contain > character, as it is described in all HTML version specifications.
