RE: [WSG] Semantic markup of a byline date/time
Did you manage to find a solution to this? Hi Ben, I ended up using this structure: div class=articleDetails cfix h5Nam vestibulum leo id condimentum/h5 citeDominus 23, 2008 - 10:36AM/cite pPage 1 of 3 a class=single href=#Single page view/a/p p class=commentsa href=#commentsComments span45/span/a/p /div This is going to be a snippet which can be skinned, hence I wrapped it into a div to allow for backgrounds. The H5 gives the byline the weight it needs semantically over other content. I found cite to be appropriate for the time stamp as it's a reference to when the article was published (but I clearly see room for discussion on this). For the other information I just used ordinary paragraphs with appropriate classes to style them.

RE: [WSG] Semantic markup of a byline date/time
I may be wrong, but your use of cite looks the wrong way around - surely a citation should point at a document?

If it's a cite _attribute_, then yes, it should point at a document. But a cite element, as I understand it, marks up a piece of attribution text, and so can simply be the name of a person, or whatever.

Eg. blockquote pSome article text blah blah blah/p pwritten by citeHarold Lloyd/cite/p /blockquote Yes, I'm using cite to reference the date. After a bit of search I found this at [1]: cite class=ref-book id=ref-edwards-civil_war_guns-1978 title=Edwards, Civil War Guns span class=author Edwards. William B./span span class=title Civil War Guns/span. span class=publisher Castle Books/span. span class=publication-date 1978/span. /cite It's clearly overkill for what I'm doing but I can understand why the author did it this way.

Re: [WSG] Semantic markup of a byline date/time
Hi Jens, Normally I'd use spans for all 3 elements, but I'm quite interested to find out a better way of doing this. Did you manage to find a solution to this?
