Re: [WSG] re: Semantic use of rel and rev in anchors
Could someone tell me if the following use of rel and rev are semantically accurate? a href=#tandc rev=appendixTCs/a ... div id=tandc ... /div a href=tandc.html rel=appendixTCs/a I'm currently developing a pop-up method specifically for Terms Conditions. One where the TCs are in a div at the bottom of the page and a second where an Ajax call fetches the external content. Thanks for reading Mike Foskett http://webSemantics.co.uk/ Since there are no standard values for rel, I think that microformats have been using this for licensing, and probably others. It's the relationship of the link, and if the link is a type of appendix, then semantically I don't see anything wrong with your use, though I would add a title tag stating the link was going to open a pop-up, if that's the case. rev is also a relationship, but not of the linked item, the other way around. If I was on a table of measurments and there was a link back to the recipe, the link would have a rev defining that the measurments do you're on is a dictionary for the recipe. So I don't think your use of rev is correct, or semantic. If you were on the TC and had a link to the home page, this link could have a rev. at least that's the way I understand it. -- Susan R.

Should've taken the time to look it up and appreciate the correction. Think I at least got right the usage of rel and rev though :) -- Susan R.
