Rob, thank you so much!
It still wrapped inside the address tag, I afraid it may throw the
site into hundred lines of errors if I remove the address tag
altogether in many of the php and phtml files. Guess I just have to
live with it.
Best,

No problem, I don't think there will any problems with removing the
address tags but it depends on whether or not you have the time to go
through the templates and test it out. I'm doing the same thing myself
at the moment inbetween other projects so hopefully they'll consider
changing the markup with a future release.

I found this 'How to add style to XML'in W3C site.

It won't be that XML that you are styling, it just allows you to define
an HTML snippet that is used when the template calls addresses.
Everything inbetween the ![CDATA[ ]] section in the defaultFormat
tag will be written into the HTML so you can write your custom HTML
there. So you could have:
defaultFormat![CDATA[
div class=vcard
div class=n{{var firstname}} {{var lastname}}/div
{{depend company}}div class=org{{var company}}/div{{/depend}}
div class=adr
span class=street-address
{{var street1}}
{{depend street2}}{{var street2}}br /{{/depend}}
/span
...etc...
]]/defaultFormat

[WSG] styling address tag or microformat hcard
In Magento, they use address.../address for customer address. It lacks flexibility for styling as I can't have other html tags place inside the address tag. I wonder if there is a semantical way to do it and that it produces no validation error. Also, if any of you have started developing sites in Magento, do you know if I can incorporate Microformat hcard easily?

Hi Tee,
under
app/design/frontend/default/default/template/customer/address.phtml you
can use this code inplace of where it says 'address../address' (line
30 or thereabouts).
div class=vcard
div class=n
span class=given-name?php echo
$_address-toString({{firstname}}); ?/span
span class=family-name?php echo
$_address-toString({{lastname}}); ?/span
/div
div class=adr
span class=street-address?php echo
$_address-toString({{street}}); ?/span
span class=locality?php echo
$_address-toString({{city}}); ?/spanbr /
span class=region?php echo
$_address-toString({{regionName}}); ?/span
span class=postal-code?php echo
$_address-toString({{postcode}}); ?/span
/div
div class=tel
T: span class=value?php echo
$_address-toString({{telephone}})); ?/span
/div
/div
It's not ideal, there might be some missing fields for example so it's
usually best to only write out the surrounding HTML when the variable is
present. There's a bunch of places where addresses appear aswell as this
but that don't give you an easy way of separating out the parts of the
address eg. book.phtml - for that file i just replaced address with
div class=adr.
Hope that gets you started

Re: [WSG] styling address tag or microformat hcard
There are no limitations with Magento when it comes to templates / layout etc. So you could easily implement hcard.

It's a plain English but I read it many times, still I don't quite
understand what you meant by 'not supposed to contain this kind of

under app/design/frontend/default/default/template/customer/
address.phtml you can use this code inplace of where it says
'address../address' (line 30 or thereabouts).
Thanks Rob, for the example, I will try it out, however I don't think
this is the right file and suspect it's not used anywhere in the site,
because it has table markup. In the customer/my dashboard page, the
address section is pulled from 'customer/account/dashboard/
address.phtml' which is pulled from this ' ?php echo $this-
getPrimaryBillingAddressHtml() ?' and this ' ?php echo $this-
getPrimaryShippingAddressHtml() ?'. In the onepage checkout, there
is also an address section located in the 'progress.phtml', with this
code:
address?php echo $this-getShipping()-format('html') ?/
address. I look into the Mage folder, and the file I found that
maybe controlling the address globally is located in 'Mage/Customer/
etc/config.xml'.
So Adam, while it has no limitations changing template and layout (I
know first hand how much freedom Magento gives to web designer as I
have literally changing every line of html code in every phtml
file :), but this address thing, I have not yet figured out and can't
find a way to edit it at all.
Magento is really great and they have done a terrific job, I do
thinkt, the 'web standard' and 'semantic' part fall short, but as a
user, I don't feel I can't expect much from them to deliver a 'much
better' web standard compliant software - I wanted to use 'perfect'
this word, but reminded myself there isn't a 'perfect' web standard
solution but a good/best practise :)
