Use of the WWP hyperDiv element as a container for notes and other hypertextual components of the text, such as acrostics and supplemental cast lists
The WWP has created an element called hyperDiv. This element has three functions:
1. The hyperDiv contains all note elements, with the exception of endnotes. Each note points to (and is pointed to by) an anchor in the body of the text. That is, the anchor has a corresp value, and the note has a value on target which matches that value.
2. The hyperDiv contains invented castLists for plays which have none or which need additional castItems.
3. The hyperDiv also contains any out-of-line markup that is necessary to join fragmented elements (e.g. linkGrp). One particular example of this is the encoding of acrostics, in which the first letter of each line of a poem (for instance) makes up a word or name. The resulting word or name is encoded within an acrostics element inside the hyperDiv. The acrostic element is a WWP invention; see 209 for details.
hyperDiv is allowed within the text element, before front.
In elements within the hyperDiv which contain WWP-generated information (such as castLists, linkGrps, etc.) no phrase-level markup should be encoded. The content of note elements, however, should be encoded in the same way as the content of the main body of the text.
