 Can anyone guide me re. best practice for marking-up physical addresses
 that would appear like this:

 123 Acacia Avenue
 Suburb State Postal Code
 Tel 888 9581 4077
 Fax 888 9581 2835

 Or is it acceptable to keep all in p and use /br's

 TIA

 Henrik

Re: [WSG] Mark-up for physical/postal addresses

The address tag was never actually built for addresses (a common
misconception), and addresses are also not lists? I would highly recommend
marking it up with Microformats and using the built in classes to style this
as you need.

 Why not use the address tag and a definition list? I believe that also
 helps a little with localised SEO :)

 Personally, IF the address had a name associated with it, I would use a
 definition list.



 However, there are some purists out there that can't see beyond using a dl
 for anything other than defining a word.  But John Doe is a term and his
 address, phone number, etc are describing him:



 John Doe

 123 Acacia Avenue

 Suburb State Postal Code

 Tel 888 9581 4077

 Fax 888 9581 2835



 Can be marked up as the following (including microformats)



 dl class=vcard 

 dt class=fn orgJohn Doe/dt

 dd class=adrstrong class='street-address123 Acacia Avenue/strong

 span class=postal-codeSuburb State Postal Code/span/dd

 dd class=telspan class=typetel/span: strong class=value888
 9581 4077/strong/dd

 dd class=telspan class=typefax/span: strong class=value888
 9581 2835/strong/dd

 /dl

Re: [WSG] CSS editors

I use textmate, http://macromates.com/ as it has really good plug-in
support, I have heard good things about Coda though.

 Hi Everyone,
 I've just migrated form PC to a new macbook  :-) but was wondering about
 the best xhtml/css editors for macs around that people can recommend?

 I can see that BBEdit is still around ( I used to use this back in the
 90's) and CSSedit seem to have some good reviews. Any preferences?

 Kind regards,
 Gicela
