This works wonderful for users of Apple Address Book and M.S. Outlook. Many of our users are Staff and use Thunderbird. Is there an online feed service much like Technorati only that it takes HARD info and converts to .ldif, .csv or .txt? Thanks for any advice on how this might be accomplished and solutions others have found.

It would be easy to modify http://hg.microformats.org/x2v?f=3277ce8ed4cc;file=hcard/xhtml2vcard.xsl;style=gitweb to output any text-based format, you'd just need a consistent way to do it. What does vcard in .csv look like? what is the order of the properties? If you can make some sample outputs, it would be easy to work through getting a new XSLT made to convert the HTML -> ??? format. -brian -- brian suda http://suda.co.uk
