Describing Multiple Resources

An RDF document can also describe multiple resources. All you have to do is to use multiple <rdf:Description> elements. For example, here's an RDF document that describes three resources: mercury.html, venus.html, and earth.html:

Listing . ch18_06.rdf
 
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<rdf:RDF
    xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
    xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/DC/">

    <rdf:Description about="http://www.starpowder.com/mercury.html">
					<dc:Creator>Nicolas Copernicus</dc:Creator>
					<dc:Title>Mercury</dc:Title>
					<dc:Type>text</dc:Type>
					</rdf:Description>
					<rdf:Description about="http://www.starpowder.com/venus.html">
					<dc:Creator>Nicolas Copernicus</dc:Creator>
					<dc:Title>Venus</dc:Title>
					<dc:Type>text</dc:Type>
					</rdf:Description> ...
