I think this is where Xhtml has it's (eventual) power. Since it's
extensible, you could use your own DTD, which has extra tags and markup
which contains the semantic meaning you need. Then via CSS and
javascript, you can alter/style the data anyway you need for the client.

A browser doesn't understand of course. It parses. Behaviour is
programmed in HTML user agents.

Hi
Hi all,
Apologies if this has been asked on WSG before, but I was wondering
the general opinion on the most correct semantic way of coding
breadcrumb trails.
There's many webpages dealing with this:

So what do you think? How do you do your breadcrumbs?
Option 1 - ul list.
Simple to do and applies some semantics to it, without using too much
bandwidth or work.
Option 2 (nested ul) and 3 (ol) actually have stronger arguments for
them,
Option 4 is... interesting. There is something subtlely wrong with it,
but I can't quite put my finger on it. Perhaps it just seems overkill?
I think at this stage i'm an option 4 convertee... unless you can
convince me otherwise!
It just seems the most semantically correct... turn off styles
in the ordering which, to me, is missing in both
UL and the various DDs of a DL.
