The article
element is a general-purpose
container for articles. The content model is both quite complex and
rather loose in order to accommodate the wide range of possible
article
structures. Although changes to the
article
element have been discussed on several
occasions, no better model has been presented.
An article
may include a table of contents and
multiple lists of tables, figures, and so on before the main text of the
article. It may also include a number of common back matter components
at the end.
Formatted as a displayed block. Frequently causes a forced page break in print media. May be numbered separately and presented in the table of contents.
