I know that when I had to use xslt to display some xml
that this was easier to show
<phone type="home">
<country>??</country>
<citycode><citycode>
<area>916</area>
<exchange>338</exchange>
<number>1234</number>
<extension>34</extionsion>
</phone>
in html format (parsed through xslt) than it was to pick these out...
<phone title="Main" number="1234567890" ext="10" type="Mobile"/>
just my travels.

Or you could do this....
<phone type="home">
<country>??</country>
<citycode><citycode>
<area>916</area>
<exchange>338</exchange>
<number>1234</number>
<extension>34</extionsion>
</phone>
I'm not sure about best practices... but I do remember from my XML
studies, it depends on what your needs are, and designing the XML
document is the real challenge/art. Parsing it afterwards is easy.

What's the best way to store phone numbers in XML?
<phone>1234567890</phone>
or maybe...
<phone title="Main" number="1234567890" ext="10" type="Mobile"/>
Is there a standard? Best practice?
Does anyone know of resources that would include best practices like
this, with examples (not just for phone numbers)?
