Please could someone help me decide which is the most appropriate tag to use with quotes? These are actual comments made by folk during a show.

For example:

<q>

<p><q>LIW 2007 was a great show for Technogym. We showcased an exciting 7 new products which our customers loved. LIW is a great event to help us showcase our products and present our latest solutions to the market!</q><br />
TECHNOGYM UK LTD</p>

or

<cite>

<p><cite>LIW 2007 was a great show for Technogym. We showcased an exciting 7 new products which our customers loved. LIW is a great event to help us showcase our products and present our latest solutions to the market!</cite><br />
TECHNOGYM UK LTD</p>

Any help most appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi Rob,

In this case I'd use the <blockquote> element personally eg.

<blockquote cite="www.technogym.com">
   <p>
LIW 2007 was a great show for Technogym. We showcased an exciting 7 new products which our...
   </p>
   <cite>TECHNOGYM UK LTD</cite>
</blockquote>

Alternatively use <q> to wrap the quote itself, and <cite> to mark up the source of the quote.

The spec has some more examples: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/text.html#h-9.2.2

Regards,
another Rob
