Re: Embedding HTML in XML

[Allen Haws <joeshmoe@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Another alternative would be to include the xhtml dtd in your dtd and
then the html, if well formed, would not need to be wrapped in CDATA.

However, for our implementation, we overrode some of the xhtml elements
because we only needed to use the content structure elements, such as a
table, list, p, etc.
