HTMLPurifier_ChildDef_Chameleon

Definition that uses different definitions depending on context.

The del and ins tags are notable because they allow different types of elements depending on whether or not they're in a block or inline context. Chameleon allows this behavior to happen by using two different definitions depending on context. While this somewhat generalized, it is specifically intended for those two tags.
