Looks like a simple typo that got missed during editing. Should of course
be:
For example, a <FORM> element may contain a <PRE> element, ...
One for the errata sheet. Speaking of which, is it possible to maintain
a current errata sheet for an RFC, or are the only allowed choices:
a) issue a new RFC for each minor error noticed
b) let the errors stand, known only to those who wrote the document
but not to the readers?
