2. In xml, on the other hand, there are almost no predefined entities, you can and must define entities yourself. But xml in itself cannot be shown as web content; you will need a xsl file which translates your xml to some sort of html. This will allow you to define most anything you want, and you can indeed add all these typographical niceties. You can then either use a tool such as xsltproc or saxon to produce a "clean" html version yourself or you can leave it to the browser.
You can also use css to show a xml http://www.w3schools.com/Xml/xml_display.asp but xslt is the main way. -- luigi
