[microformats-discuss] hCard parsing: <th abbr>, <area href>, etc.

[Mark Pilgrim]

re: http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-parsing#parsing_hCard_properties_and_values

I recommend adding the following:

> For all properties, when the element for a property is:
> <th>: use the value of the abbr attribute, if present

and also these:

> For properties that may take type URL or URI...
> <area>: use the href attribute
> <q>: use the cite attribute
> <blockquote>: use the cite attribute
> <ins>: use the cite attribute
> <del>: use the cite attribute
> <form>: use the action attribute
> <input>: use the src attribute (used for image form fields?)
> <frame>: use the src attribute
> <iframe>: use the src attribute

Also, a more general question: does this section on parsing property
values apply to other microformats as well, such as hCalendar?  If so,
I'll break out this section and put it on its own page.
