Content Types

An (incomplete) description of the elements we anticipate when displaying policy documents.

"Node"/block types

• footnote - Content for a footnote.
• heading - Generally, an h1/2/3/4..., depending on nesting within sections
• list - Contains multiple elements, usually indented, like a bulleted or numbered list.
• math - Contains mathematical formulas.
• para - A paragraph of text.
• policy - The root element of a policy document. May be the best place to display meta data about the whole policy.
• sec - A section within a document. Useful for indicating hierarchy, e.g. with indentation

Additionally, the following elements have the same semantics from HTML: caption, table, tbody, td, th, thead, tr.
