Surely there is scope for tying form parameters to microformat descriptions? If I want to recieve an address I might put input parameters for: street address town postcode but if the form was marked to recieve an hcard then it could be automatically populated by the browser (or greasemonkey, or whatever). -- Nic Ferrier http://www.tapsellferrier.co.uk for all your tapsell ferrier needs _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
