Best, tee No problem, I don't think there will any problems with removing the 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. -Rob *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Thierry
afaik, the address element is not supposed to contain this kind of
information as it is related to the people who "maintain/are
responsible"
for the document itself (or a section of the document).
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
information as it is related to the people who "maintain/are
responsible"
for the document itself (or a section of the document).'
under app/design/frontend/default/default/template/customer/
address.phtml you can use this code inplace of where it says
'..' (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 ' >getPrimaryBillingAddressHtml() ?>' and this ' >getPrimaryShippingAddressHtml() ?>'. In the onepage checkout, there
is also an address section located in the 'progress.phtml', with this
code:
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 :)

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. Cheers Adam (www.tweakmag.com) tee wrote: In Magento, they use ... 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?

That's the way to go, but I don't know about Magento
Hi Tee,
under
app/design/frontend/default/default/template/customer/address.phtml you
can use this code inplace of where it says '..' (line
30 or thereabouts).
$_address->toString("{{firstname}}"); ?>
$_address->toString("{{lastname}}"); ?>
$_address->toString("{{street}}"); ?>
$_address->toString("{{city}}"); ?>
$_address->toString("{{regionName}}"); ?>
$_address->toString("{{postcode}}"); ?>
T: $_address->toString("{{telephone}}")); ?>
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 with
.
Hope that gets you started
-Rob
