As an interest in the citation microformat and title design pattern I mentioned previously[1], I've done a little research to see how publishers are currently marking up book titles.
The results have been added to the citation examples page as Citation Mark up in the Wild[2] These are just a few examples from a handful of publishers' online catalogs. A quick synopsis of the type of mark up being used: For Titles: * id="title" class="producttitle" * class="title" * id="lblTitle" class="book_headline block" * table cell, no mark up * h1 * h2 Sub-titles: * id="subtitle" class="productsubtitle" * class="sub_title" * id="lblSubTitle" class="book_subline" * class="subTitle" I've also created a citations in the wild page[3] where I tried to capture the pieces of each publisher's page. The wiki page needs a bunch of clean up, and I may just post the examples on my site with just a list of links to the publisher's sites. Let me know which you'd prefer. Any feedback is appreciated.
