[Cryptography] On hiding binary data in HTML documents

There are a number of schemes known which attempt to hide binary data in 
HTML
documents via modifcation/use of tags in the HTML file, e.g. (1) based 
on the fact that
HTML tags are case insensitive 
(www.ijettjournal.org/volume-4/issue-7/IJETT-V4I7P186.pdf 
<http://www.ijettjournal.org/volume-4/issue-7/IJETT-V4I7P186.pdf>)
or (2) hide info in the ID attribute of HTML tags
  (http://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/1-4020-5261-8_39).

IMHO such attempts apparently couldn't avoid the attention of a careful 
warden who well
knows such methods and hence it is much more favourable to simply hide 
the binary data
in the natural language text to be shown in the browser itself
