• Thread-topic: generic markup

Perhaps it means something like this excerpt that may hold data from an electronic form, for example (or a screen):

<fields>
  <field>blah blah blah</field>
  <field>blah blah blah</field>
  <field>blah blah blah</field>
</fields>

As opposed to

<CustomerInformation>
  <FirstName>John</FirstName>
  <MiddleInitial>Q</MiddleInitial>
  <LastName>Public</LastName>
  etc.
</CustomerInformation>
