<linktext>
Link text is the label for a link or resource.
Usage information
The <linktext> element
provides descriptive text for a link. It is most commonly used when
the target cannot be resolved during processing or when a title for
the reference cannot be determined by a processor. For example,
link text might be required when the link is to a peer, external,
or non-DITA resource.
Rendering expectations
When a link contains a
<linktext> element, the content of the
<linktext> element is rendered instead of
the text that retrieved from the resource.
