Originally, I think it was a verb but it predates our digital technologies. It was the practice of those preparing a manuscript for a typesetter, AFAIK. Now it is both. len From: Costello, Roger L. [mailto:costello@m...] Hi Folks, Consider this data: Nikon D40 Here I did "something" to the data: <camera>Nikon D40</camera> Which is preferred way of expressing what I did to the data: 1. I marked up the data. 2. I wrapped the data in a tag. 3. I wrapped the data in tags. 4. I wrapped the data in a start-tag/end-tag pair. 5. I wrapped the data in markup. 6. I embedded the data in markup. 7. I enclosed the data in markup. Or some other way? I suspect that several of the above expressions are acceptable; which ones? Are some of the above expressions just plain wrong, i.e. incorrect English grammar? /Roger _______________________________________________________________________ XML-DEV is a publicly archived, unmoderated list hosted by OASIS to support XML implementation and development.
