XML is not HTML. There is no meaning attached to the name of elements 'i'
and 'text'. These are just names, nothing more. XML allows you to invent
your own vocabulary. Whatever you are using to process the XML is
responsible for knowing what to do with 'i' elements. For example, you
could use an XSLT processor to transform 'text' and 'i' XHML elements into
'p' and 'i' HTML elements:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" version="1.0"/>
<xsl:template match="text">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Also, remember this is an XSL list, not an XML list.
