Fthiess: Fixed markup error in example

<h1>More ADR examples</h1>

<h2>LOCALITY and other ADR fragments</h2>

Using the <strong>adr</strong> microformat should not just be limited to full datasets of information.
In some cases, people reference regions or localities sans any additional information.

By marking these cases up, use of microformats, (particularly <strong>adr</strong>), will skyrocket.

For instance - with the below post, we reference a city but nothing else.
Because I marked up the city name with the <em>locality</em> property, I added the <em>adr</em>
property to the block-level parent element that contains the relevant <em>locality</em> property.

<h3>Example:</h3>

<pre><nowiki>
<p class="adr">Unbelievable. Yesterday's high temperature in <span
class="locality">Salem</span> it was 57 degrees out. </p>
</nowiki></pre>

<h2>Use of the <code><abbr></code> element</h2>

Semantically-correct <strong>adr</strong> markup would use the <code><abbr></code> element while
using the <em>region</em>, <em>country-name</em> and perhaps other <strong>adr</strong> properties.

<h3>Example:</h3>

<pre><nowiki>
<abbr class="region" title="California">CA</abbr>,
<abbr class="country-name" title="United States">US</abbr>
</nowiki></pre>

For the full country names in the <code>title</code> attribute of the <code><abbr></code> element when using the <em>country-name</em> property,
use [http://www.iso.org/iso/en/prods-services/iso3166ma/02iso-3166-code-lists/list-en1.html ISO 3166-1].
