Everything except #2. There are two tags <camera> and </camera>. There is
one element <camera>Nikon D40</camera>.
I also use the expression "I tagged the data".

Subject: [xml-dev] Is "markup" a noun or a verb? Do you "markup data" or
"wrap data in tags"?
Hi Folks,
Consider this data:
Nikon D40
Here I did "something" to the data:
<camera>Nikon D40</camera>
Which is preferred way of expressing what I did to the data:
1. I marked up the data.
2. I wrapped the data in a tag.
3. I wrapped the data in tags.
4. I wrapped the data in a start-tag/end-tag pair.
5. I wrapped the data in markup.
6. I embedded the data in markup.
7. I enclosed the data in markup.
Or some other way?
I suspect that several of the above expressions are acceptable; which
ones?
Are some of the above expressions just plain wrong, i.e. incorrect
English grammar?
/Roger
