這是一個相當簡單的從半結構化數據到 HTML 的映射。默認的樣式不太多，但是很容易使用 CSS 以跨平台的方式重新設置樣式。使用 DOM 操作數據也很容易，甚至不需要解釋。添加 Html 代碼會使文檔有所膨脹，但是不太過分。這個示例與 XOXO 大綱微格式非常相似而且我相信，如果在第一個 <ul /> 元素中添加 class="outline"，它就會成為 XOXO 大綱。可以使用定制的 XML 語言添加更多的語義內容，例如用 <submission/> 元素替換描述列表，但是對於這個示例，在簡潔性或可讀性方面幫助不大。接下來，我嘗試使用 JavaScript Object Notation（JSON）進一步進行簡化：
