Allthis xml stuff CAN be put INTO the database, its
just the database would make some of the tags
redundant (eg - author), because they can be handled
by separate fields in the db much better and
searchable by each field fast. If you still REALLY
want to use xml for some of the formatting, yeah that
can be held in the text field of the database along
with the rest of the body of text.   If this is the
case then there is little to no advantage of the xml
over normal html.
