Dear friends,

This is my first post to the list, so please forgive me if this is
inappropriate.

I´m trying to find information about microformats in sports, more
specifically football (soccer for the americans). I´m involved in a project
that will expose lots of data such as match results, scouts, player
information and the like, and could not help but think about using
microformats to expose this data.

Any suggestions or ideas?

Yours thankfully,

Danilo Medeiros

SOURCE is just the 'source' of where the the hcard came from.

2.1.4 SOURCE Type

   If the SOURCE type is present, then its value provides information
   how to find the source for the vCard.

The simplest solution is usually the best, eh? Good idea. *slaps  
forehead*

For the record though, I still think there should be markup-only  
fallback, such as putting the tagName in a title attribute.

either
<a rel="tag" href="/search/tag/foo">All uses of FOO</a>
or
<a rel="tag" title="foo" href="/search?tag=foo">All uses of FOO</a>

        It really comes down to how you want this information categorized
elsewhere when it's out of the context of your visually formatted CV. In
other words, the hResume parsers that might consume your CV will not take
the heading of "Training" with it and will lump the lectures/presentations
with your "Education".

> I have started marking them up as class="training vevent".

        That makes sense.

Best,
Steve

I'm hoping they switch to the tagname/index.html solution - it seems
logical enough and the only downside would be some more FTP overhead
(which I for one am more than willing to wear). Unless of course
there's something in Blogger's code base which would come into play.

Personally I'd like to see the directory+index.html solution for all
Blogger pages, it'd pave the way to eventually allow other formats
like PHP, for one thing. But anyway, that's off the topic.

cheers,
Ben

SOURCE in vCard is essentially the same as self in Atom (AFAICT).

I think SOURCE is actually closer to VIA in Atom, as "the source of  
the information provided in the containing element," which is why I  
suggested it.  As I understood the arguments between UID+URL and VIA  
(and I may well have missed some key points), UID+URL is good because  
it's already in vCard, but bad because not all UIDs point to more  
authoritative hCards.  And VIA is good because the source of  
information is always more authoritative than the derivative, but bad  
because it's not already in vCard.  So SOURCE+URL seems good because  
the source of information is always more authoritative than the  
derivative, and also good because it's already in vCard.

vCard's SOURCE is taken from RFC 2425, which offers an explanation  
that sounds to me like what we're trying to accomplish:

> The SOURCE type is used to provide the means by
> which applications knowledgable in the given directory service
> protocol can obtain additional or more up-to-date information from

"Additional or more up-to-date information" is what we're looking for  
in an authoritative hCard, right?

Peace,
Scott

Roger,
Neat stuff. I thought it was pretty good, but take some issue with the
following:

  <a href="javascript:ahah('Waldorf-Astoria-Photo.html','Photo');">photo</a>

The best practice is to wire the event up, and to use a button when
the element is not truly a link.

Something more like:

  <button
onclick="ahah('Waldorf-Astoria-Photo.html','Photo');">photo</button>

or even better:

<button id="photo_changer" type="button" >photo</button>
<script type="text/javascript>
// must be done either after onload fires or after the element appears
in the DOM...
// find the element.
photoButton = document.getElementById('photo_changer');
// wire up the event.
photoButton.onclick = function () {
  ahah('Waldorf-Astoria-Photo.html','Photo');
};
</script>

But work is (or perhaps should be) a 'learning experience' too.  It's
not quite the same thing, but most application forms I've filled in
have had separate sections for Education and Training.

A quick google for some examples:

1 -
http://www.chichester.gov.uk/your_council/council_jobs/copy_of_job_appln_for
m1.cfm
(link to Word doc on page) - Has an 'EDUCATION & PROFESSIONAL
QUALIFICATIONS' section, separate boxes for schooling, professional
qualifications and 'other relevant training' but all under the same
heading.

2 -
http://www.tendringdc.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/E8AE5F2D-4F09-46F7-8044-9A45A924CD
CE/0/ApplicationForm130306.pdf
- seperate sections for Education and Professional Qualifications

3 - http://www.unison.org.uk/acrobat/B1491.pdf - separate sections for
Education and Training, though the distinction is that anything which
leads to a qualification is Education, and everything else is
Training.  This is perhaps a more useful practical distinction than
the slightly nebulous concepts I had in mind.

4 - http://www.scope.org.uk/downloads/jobs/jobapp_may05.doc - similar
to 3, things with an exam are Education, other things are Training.

5 - http://www.rhul.ac.uk/personnel/application.pdf - similar to 1,
all in one section but sperate boxes for School, Further/Higher
Education, Formal Qualifications and Other Training

6 - http://www.broxtowe.gov.uk/application_form_april_2006.pdf -
Education and Training all in the same box/section.

On the basis of the above examples, I would suggest that a distinction
between education and training could be useful as clearly employers
sometimes see them as distinct concepts.

Just one thing, <button> isn't a valid HTML tag. You'd be better off
using <span> (unless you're working with the XML DOM of course).
