<email> Email Address

Electronic mail address of a person or institution.

The email element (<email>) is allowed as part of a paragraph as well as inside an address. There are two ways to treat an email address in text: as an <email> element or as an <ext-link> element. If both a textual phrase (“the Moody Institute’s email address”) and a mailto URL are required, the <ext-link> element should be used.

Related Elements

An address (<address>) element contains a postal address and/or other contact information such as a company or organization name. If an address is divided into lines, the lines can be preserved using the <addr-line> element. Typically, the <addr-line> element holds one physical or logical line of an address, containing undifferentiated portions of an address such as organization names, street addresses, post box numbers, building numbers, mailstops, etc. They are called “lines” because addresses are frequently divided onto multiple lines, and this encoding allows that fact to be preserved. If the address is just a block of undifferentiated text, numbers, or special characters, the entire address may be placed inside a single <addr-line> element.

There are several ways to tag an address:

As one undifferentiated run of narrative text inside the <addr-line> element;
As a series of named address elements such as <country>, <city>, <fax>, <institution>, <institution-wrap>, <phone>, <postal-code>, <state>, <email>, etc.;
As a series of address lines (<addr-line>), which may or may not contain, mixed with the text, any of named address elements such as <country> just listed;
As a mixture of named elements and address lines (<addr-line>); etc.

An address element (<address>) does not contain any text, only lower-level address elements.
