My confusion comes when trying to impliment email types. I used the
following markup:
<a href="FooBarRedirect">
<abbr class="email" title="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">
<span class="type" title="internet pref">Email FooBar</span>
</abbr>
</a>
The markup appears to be correct, as when your code is added to an hcard
with a test name, the tool at http://suda.co.uk/projects/X2V/ pulls out
the correct information.
The type of internet and preferred aren't necessary, as internet is the
default email type, and as there is only one email address listed for
them, there is strictly no preferred one to refer to.
From what I've read through, I believed this would be correct, while
keeping markup to a minimum. However, checking my hcard markup using
the Tails & Operator Firefox extensions proved troublesome in the fact
that when exporting the cards 'Email FooBar' showed up as the email
address instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tails would show the correct email
address in the sidebar, but not in the exportation.
I realise that potential issues with these extentions are outside the
scope of this list; I would appreiciate, though, comment or
suggestions on the above markup.
What you may be facing is that some tools aren't as of yet fully complete.
As an example, Operator is an alpha release right now, and doesn't
appear to support some abbr design patterns.
The most up-to-date one typically being http://suda.co.uk/projects/X2V/
