The table is ok but it has a problem, is not posible to represent where is located <String> (chldren of <Pair>)... so this probably needs to be replaced by something better

*This is the last unknown, seems to be used to specify a class by its ID (used as replacement of '''type:'''), is unknown if it can be used with Query classes, Item classes, or with both
{{Boxcode|code=<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<Query class="clsid:unknown_id"/>
<Item class="clsid:unknown_id"/>
</syntaxhighlight>}}
= #include Table=
In old firmwares there seems to be a way to '''include''' attribute tables inside other attribute tables, it works in the same way like in some coding languages, the included stuff needs to be loaded before the tag that includes it, and the names used are the same than the table keys, as example, using the minimalistic example of front page:
{{Boxcode|code=<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<View id="example">
<Attributes>
<Table key="PS3_cover_size">
<Pair key="icon_fixed_width"><String>170</String></Pair>
<Pair key="icon_fixed_height"><String>200</String></Pair>
</Table>
<Table key="game_001" include="PS3_cover_size">
<Pair key="icon"><String>...game_001_cover.jpg</String></Pair>
</Table>
<Table key="game_002" include="PS3_cover_size">
<Pair key="icon"><String>...game_002_cover.jpg</String></Pair>
</Table>
<Table key="game_003" include="PS3_cover_size">
<Pair key="icon"><String>...game_003_cover.jpg</String></Pair>
</Table>
</Attributes>
<Items>
<Item key="game_001" attr="game_001"/>
<Item key="game_001" attr="game_002"/>
<Item key="game_001" attr="game_003"/>
</Items>
</View>
</syntaxhighlight>}}
In the example the attribute tables named "game_xxx" are going to load the contents of the table named "PS3_cover_size", this can be used when there are several items that uses the same attributes, is posible to create some common groups of attributes that defines a group (for restrictions or shared features), and then create more items or querys that loads an small attribute table specific for the icon + additionally the included attributes common for this kind of item. This is specially useful to make custom .xml files much smaller by removing duplicated lines (like webman)
