Re: [jats-list] html fragments and JATS

["Alexander Schwarzman aschwarzman@xxxxxxxxx" <jats-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

An HTML fragment could be tagged with either <textual-form> or <code>
-- and thus it would be nice if the Tag Library provided guidance on
the use of <textual-form> vs. <code>, especially within
<alternatives>. Also, whether it is <textual-form> or <code>, in order
to represent angular brackets one could use escaped characters &lt;
and &gt; or the CDATA section instead, as Gareth has suggested. The
<code> examples in the Tag Library use the escaped characters, but it
is unclear if the use of CDATA is deprecated or not.
