The description field in the WWWAnchor allows for a friendly prompt to be displayed as an alternative to the URL in the name field.
Ideally, browsers will allow the user to choose the description, the URL or both to be displayed for a candidate WWWAnchor.
The WWWAnchor's map field is an enumerated value that can be either NONE(the default) or POINT.
  • If it is POINT then the object-space coordinates of the point on the object the user chose will be added to the URL in the name field, with the syntax "?x,y,z".
