Data type determination

uses the yfsdatatypemap.xml file for data type determination.

First the application searches the file to find the string specified for binding (including the xml: prefix). If the entire binding string is not found, the application searches the file for only the attribute part of the binding string.

The attribute must be able to be found in one of these two formats.

Then, using the definition in the datatypes.xml file, the Presentation Framework API forms an appropriate HTML string with custom attributes that are then used on the client side.
