character data

Note

Cf. the general date element in the core tag set. This specialized element is provided for convenience in marking and processing the date of the documents, since it is likely to require specialized handling for many applications. It should be used only for the date of the entire document, not for any subset or part of it.

Examples

<docImprint>Oxford, Clarendon Press, <docDate>1987</docDate>
