Of course, if you were to make, for example, your Person model use the same field names as hCard/vCard you could skip the step of figuring out how to represent a person (again).
Yep. You could also use alias_attribute if the model fields and the microformat fields don't match up and you don't need any special processing to coerce the uf data. For example, if you have an hCard and you're using the 'bday' attribute but your model has a 'date_of_birth' field: alias_attribute :bday, :date_of_birth Now you can @person.bday = Time.now (or something) and it'll be functionally the same as @person.date_of_birthday = Time.now. However, I gotta say: posting HTML is kind of awkward. Isn't it? Microformats are for publishing and talk of posting them to endpoints kinda gives me the willies... -- Chris Wanstrath http://errtheblog.com _______________________________________________ microformats-rest mailing list [email protected] http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-rest
