Re: [WSG] Address Element
Hi there, Dear WSG members, I'm a bit confused about the correct use for address-element. W3C documentation states that it should be used to supply contact information for a document or a major part of a document such as a form.. Now as I'm working on phone (and address) directories, I am currently using the element to mark up addresses of all listings (no matter how many of the listings are on a page). What do you think? Is this correct usage or not? Well the spec is not clear, but it seems the intention of the element is to provide contact details for the page itself; rather than the subject of the page. It's an odd element - extremely specific. For contact details, you could use definition lists; a well-structured table (depending on whether you feel a single-row/column table is acceptable) or even just an unordered list. It depends on exactly what you're providing. If you do want to implement the hCard microformat, you will probably find the tag nesting requirements don't work all that well with definition lists unless you never have to type an entry. If you do have type entries, it gets more difficult. I did an hCard implementation recently and went with a mixture of headings, paragraphs and unordered lists with strong tags. The other contender was a series of single-entry definition lists, which I wasn't quite so keen on at the time but I may swap it in future :) Sorry, that drifted away from your question. Basically, going by the spec as I've been led to understand it; no your usage of the address element probably isn't correct. cheers h -- --- http://www.200ok.com.au/ --- The future has arrived; it's just not --- evenly distributed. - William Gibson ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

Re: [WSG] Site Check Please (Citinet Lending)
I am still in learning-process but in my opinion your site is excellent! Just test your site for example at ' http://www.sidar.org '. This validator found some problems. What I miss is a 'skip to main content' and accesskeys. With ff the text from the main-content overlapps the footer by using the zoom-function in some sites, e. g. http://dev5.headclerk.net/about.htm.

Re: [WSG] help with jello mold
Looking with Firefox 1.0.7, I get a horizontal scroll bar. It looks "broken" but I don't know the layout you're trying to achieve. I was looking at the source and I noticed your body tag is broken.Could that be causing problems? bodydiv id="sizer" Mike Cherimhttp://green-beast.com/http://accessites.org/ - Original Message - From: kvnmcwebn To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Sent: Sunday, February 19, 2006 8:21 AM Subject: Re: [WSG] help with jello mold Hello,having big problems with the jello layout again,It works exactly how i want in firefox but breaks in ie... cant fix it..tried hard.PLEASE help.http://www.mcmonagle.biz/finalsite/jello2.htmlhttp://www.mcmonagle.biz/finalsite/final.csshttp://www.mcmonagle.biz/finalsite/theme.css-bestkvnmcwebn**The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfmfor some hints on posting to the list getting help**

RE: [WSG] Address Element
Christian Montoya I told you, you are the author, as in, the markup-writer author... for every page you work on, the only person that can go in the address tag is you... or the webmaster running the site. I would disagree, for example when a book goes to print, does the printing house become the author as they put the ink to paper? While yes the web is different from print I see it in the same context, the author is whoever provided the content. A majority of the public only ever see the content displayed, and if they need to contact someone concerning the document content, providing a means of contacting the coder is meaningless. So if in there future is possible to extract the documents author from the address tag, I would think providing contact information about the author of the document would have more meaning.
