French term or phrase: member
I have been using "element" to translate this term in a patent relating to a mark-up language module for extracting data and generating objects: "... chaque objet comprend au moins un membre relatif à la structure dudit objet et au moins un constructeur, ledit au moins un constructeur permettant audit module de création d'objets de renseigner le contenu dudit au moins un member."

Does that make sense or is there a better term?

Thanks very much!
