TrackBack
Extension: TrackBack
Extension Name: trackback
Purpose: The RSS TrackBack extends
the original "trackback" blogging
system developed by MovableType. The Trackback
system informs the original works that it
has been syndicated. With the TrackBack data
embedded in RSS, properly designed software
applications can automatically handle the
discovery of the TrackBack url and ping it
when appropriate.
Declaration: The name space for TrackBack
is defined at http://madskills.com/public/xml/rss/module/trackback/
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:trackback="http://madskills.com/public/xml/rss/module/trackback/">
Elements: The Trackback namespace has
two elements. Both are sub-elements of the
item tag.
<trackback:ping>
The trackback:ping is this feed item's TrackBack
url.
<trackback:about>
The trackback:about is the original item that
was pinged, letting the original author know
that the information was syndicated using
a TrackBack.
Example:
