From: "Andy Mabbett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In addition to Patrick's valid concerns about house style; I would again
point out that "dtend" is exclusive; microformats currently (and
wrongly, from a semantic and accessibility PoV) require:
Q1 '07: <span class="dtstart">2007-01-01</span> through <abbr
class="dtend" title="2007-04-02">2007-04-01</abbr>
My understanding here is that the date defaults to a time of midnight, so
the end date must be exclusive otherwise a one-day event will last for no
time at all.
You're right to be concerned though. I suspect that it is too much to ask
people marking up their code to understand such fine points. Not to mention
the troubles involved with templated or scripted markup.
I have proposed a solution to this problem:
<http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar-brainstorming#Simplification_of_date-end>
but it has, so far, been ignored.
You may want to correct the proposition. The following from the proposal I
suspect is errant.
<abbr class="enddate" title="2007-03-31">31 January 2007</abbr>
Were you after the following?
<abbr class="enddate" title="2007-01-31">31 January 2007</abbr>
