Beginner help with docbook v5 bold XML text tags

Question

See more:

how should text should be tagged for bold text in docbook v5 for XML export from Indesign?

Is this correct?

<emphasis role="strong">insert text to be bold here</emphasis>

How would you tag bold vs. italic text in an indesign document you are preparing for XML export?

Make an "emphasis" tag for italic and bold text and add the attribute of strong to the bold?

If this is not the correct forum for beginner questions, can you recommend one?

I'd appreciate help sooooooooooooooooo much!

Thanks-I had tried there and had no luck so I tried here.
(By the way the word "logical" could have been edited.)
But thanks for your help!

What do you mean "the word 'logical' be edited"? The docbook website is the obvious place for help on docbook.
