CT_Body

Schema Name	CT_Body
Spec Name	Document Body
Tag(s)	w:body
Namespace	wordprocessingml (wml.xsd)
Spec Section	17.2.2

Spec text

This element specifies the contents of the body of the document – the main document editing surface.

The document body contains what is referred to as block-level markup – markup which can exist as a sibling element to paragraphs in a WordprocessingML document.

Example: Consider a document with a single paragraph in the main document story. This document would require the following WordprocessingML in its main document part:

<w:document>
  <w:body>
    <w:p/>
  </w:body>
</w:document>

The fact that the paragraph is inside the body element makes it part of the main document story.
