  Ryan Moore:
    Looking for best practice markup for addresses. 

    is it correct to use

    <dl>
    <dt>Main Office</dt>
    <dd>123 Fake Street</dd>
    <dd>Somewhere, SomeCountry, SomeZip</dd> 
    </dl>

    or is there a better practice for this?

  Diego La Monica:
   Ryan, I don't think is the correct use for dl+dt/dd because dt is a term 
while dd is a definition for the term, and in a dictionary it would be the best 
method (IMHO) because a term could have more than one definition, but in an 
address, each definition (in your example) is right, but any of them must be 
omitted. 


  I suppose that the correct way to represent an address is by microformats.

  Bye.
