[docbook] How to code bibliography citations in regular paragraphs...


Hello,
 
 
I need to code bibliography citation using docbook dtd. My question is:
 
1) Which element should I use for bibliography citation links that are appearing in paragraphs?
For example: If I need to link "Blah... Blah... Bent (1987) ..Blah... Blah..." in running text.
Should I use:
 
a) <para>Blah... Blah... <link linkend="Bent1987">Bent (1987)</linkend> ..Blah... Blah...</para>
 
OR
 
b) <para>Blah... Blah... <citation><xref linkend="Bent1987" endterm="Bent1987.abbrev"/></citation> Blah... Blah...</para>
 
while in Bibliography the coding is:
<biblioentry id="Bent1987"><abbrev id="Bent1987.abbrev">Bent (1987)</abbrev> ..Blah....</bibliodentry>
 
 
 
 
Regards
Raju
