Boxed text

Capture boxed text in a boxed-text element.

Capture the boxed-text element according to the placement indicator in the manuscript, or (if there is no such indicator) after the paragraph in which it is cited.

If the boxed text is referenced in the body of the article it must include a id attribute for cross-referencing.

Capture the label for the box in a label element.

If the box has a title use a title element (within a caption element).

If the type of box is indicated with a typecode, capture a content-type attribute to indicate the type. Allowed values of content-type are:

annotation
answerKey
case-study
checklist
cross-reference
definition
examples
exercise
expert-comment
faq
headnote
hint
key-points
key-terms
learning-objectives

The label may be repeated in multiple boxes across the XML.

 <boxed-text content-type="key-points">

  <p>[Content of the boxed text]</p>
 </boxed-text>

Annotation to text

Wrap the text being annotated in a xref element with attribute ref-type="boxed-text".

<p><xref ref-type="boxed-text" rid="workid-UKRAI10JL5MB-book-part-2-boxed-text-1">It killed 
  an estimated 50 million people worldwide and 675,000 Americans, according to the U.S. Department of 
  Health and Human Services website flu.gov accessed on June 1, 2015.</xref>  
  City morgues across the United States became overwhelmed with bodes stacked like cords of wood. 
  Undertakers rapidly ran out of coffins, and graves couldn’t be dug fast enough to accommodate the 
  rising death toll, so bodies often lay in homes for days or even weeks. 
  <xref ref-type="boxed-text" rid="workid-UKRAI10JL5MB-book-part-2-boxed-text-2">According to Gina Kolata, 
  author of the 1999 book Flu, victims of this disease suffered agonizing symptoms that included 
  high fever and violent coughing fits that cracked ribs and spewed blood from victims’ mouths. 
  Fluid filled their lungs causing many to drown in their own juices.</xref></p>
