The Playpen
Enthused by the WSG meeting on Microformats last Thursday, I thought I would update my website to include some hCard information, so put together this example::
You'll
find me haunting other bits of the web at the following places:
- My Professional blog - lives at cazmockett.blogtspot.com
- Technorati - profile cazmockett
- del.icio.usly me - profile cazmockett
- Flickr - user Rugby Mad Girl
- Upcoming - user cazmockett
- My Rugby Blog - lives at rugbymadgirl.blogspot.com
- Last.fm - user cazmockett
- d.construct06 - backnetwork user CazM
I thought I would include links to "me" elsewhere on the web, too - such as Flickr and Upcoming. The hCard spec allows for these sort of additional URLs, as long as you mark them up with class="url", which I duely did.
However, when the Tails extension for Firefox scrapes the page for Microformat info, if you have marked up multiple links with class="url" - it just takes the last one in the vCard element as the one which is displayed in the popup. I removed the class from the last link in the list, and Tails took the next one up. So, it seems Tails doesn't parse mutlitple URLs and list them too, it just uses "last man wins" as the URL to display - a shame :-(
In order that I don't mess up my about me page, I've taken these extra classes off it, but the hCard on this page has class="url" on all my other links - so the one Tails displays is my deconstruct06 profile, when what I really want as the primary URL is the link for Freelance Web Design & Photography at the top of the page.
If anyone has any thoughts, please post a comment to my Blog.
