I have used a Microformat for the first time in a project (cue fanfare) but it's not working out 100% as I had hoped (cue loud booing noise and general rasping).

I want the telephone numbers to display on screen as Work and Mobile, but understand that it needs to be marked up as Office and Cell. So I want to use CSS to hide the proper terminology and display the UK- centric terms instead.

Is this OK?

<div>Office: <span class="tel"><span class="type">Work</span> <span class="value">+44 (0) 121 683 5151</span></span></div> <div>Mobile: <span class="tel"><span class="type">Cell</span> <span class="value">+44 (0) 7710 623044</span></span></div>

I've had issues where by placing the <span class="type">Work</span> in the HTML, it imports that information into the hCard itself, so that in iCal on Mac it shows as :

Cell: Mobile +44 (0) 7710 623044

... and when that gets synced to my phone, it all goes to pot.

Like I said, it's probably something simple I've missed, but wood/ trees and all that.

Thanks
