* {{OpenIssue}} 2006-10-21 raised by [[User:AndyMabbett|Andy Mabbett]]
*# ''There should be some way to say that the URL of an hCard or hCalendar event is the URL of the page itself, without having to include a redundant, and accessibility-damaging link to that page, on the page itself.''
*#* Quite often I see "a" webpage accessible with several different URLs. Typically 1 URL is the "preferred" URL, expected to have a long lifetime. Sometimes other URLs are "convenience" URLs that may have been linked to in the past, but are expected to go away soon, which resolve to the same file (the "latest version"). Then there are "archive" URLs that show an exact copy of that webpage as it appeared some time in the past. I think we want to always use the "preferred" URL, no matter which of those URLs we happen to stumble upon first -- so the URL is not actually redundant. (How exactly is it "accessibility-damaging" for a page to link to itself? Could you explain or add a link to an explanation?) --[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 17:44, 5 Apr 2007 (PDT)
*#**"''How exactly is it "accessibility-damaging" for a page to link to itself?''" - Novice user clicks on link; nothing (it appears) happens. Repeat ad infinitum, until user leaves site to do something else. [[User:AndyMabbett|Andy Mabbett]] 02:43, 6 Apr 2007 (PDT)
*#*A: ACCEPTED THEORETICAL.  While I tend to agree with the accessibility guidelines/issues noted herein in theory, to make this a real world issue worthy of higher priority, we need documentation of examples in the wild where the URL of an  hCard or hCalendar event is the URL of the page itself, so that we can use those examples to inform brainstorming towards a solution. [[User:Tantek|Tantek]] 15:11, 10 Apr 2007 (PDT)
*#** Examples in the wild where the URL of an hCard is the URL of the page itself:
*#*** [http://2007.sxsw.com/music/showcases/band/999918.html The Pipettes] page at SXSW 2007 (1 of 1000+ bands). There are no links to the page itself on the page to markup with class="url".  Thus it would be nice to have a way for the hCard for The Pipettes to indicate that the page itself is the URL for the hCard.
*#*** See also the proposal to use this pattern in [[representative-hcard]]
*#** Examples in the wild where the URL of an hCalendar event is the URL of the page itself:
*#*** [http://2007.sxsw.com/music/showcases/band/999918.html The Pipettes at La Zona Rosa] page at SXSW 2007 (1 of 1000+ concerts, yes, same page as the page for The Pipettes the org). There are no links to the page itself on the page to markup with class="url".  Thus it would be nice to have a way for the hCalendar event for The Pipettes at La Zona Rosa to indicate that the page itself is the URL for the hCalendar event.
*#** This is also an [[hreview-issues|hReview issue]] and any other microformat which has a "url" property. Examples where the URL of an (potential) hReview *item* is the URL of the page itself:
*#*** [http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0553380958 Snow Crash (Bantam Spectra Book) (Paperback) on Amazon] (millions of potential hReview items/products with reviews on their item pages).

* {{OpenIssue}} 2007-01-26 raised by [[User::JamesCraig|JamesCraig]].
*# RFC2426 'type' values cannot be localized/internationalized in hCard. In the example below, there is no solution to mark the Spanish version with a type of 'home' since the RFC2426 values are defined in English. <strong>abbr-design-pattern</strong> would suggest using abbr, but 'Casa' is not an abbreviated form of 'home', therefore the currently recommended version (below) is not valid.<pre><nowiki>
<span class="tel" xml:lang="es">
  <abbr class="type" title="home">Casa</abbr> (<span class="type">pref</span>erido):
  <span class="value">+1.415.555.1212</span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>
*#* REJECTED. TOO LITTLE INFORMATION.  Please provide the precise URL to the specific statement on the accessify forum discussion that asserts that using abbr is not valid.  Please also provide a precise URL to a *real world* (as opposed to an artificially constructed test case) example in the wild of an non-English hCard which attempts to specify RFC2426 type information on a "tel" property and fails to do so.
*#* REOPENED and clarified (Also removed Accessify reference pulled from [[http://microformats.org/wiki?title=accessibility&oldid=12943 original raising]]).
*#*# Though erroneously first raised on the accessibility page, this is not an accessibility issue. It is an HTML semantics issue for internationalization. <code>abbr[title]</code> should be an expanded form of <code>abbr</code> contents, in the same language.
*#*# There are real-world non-English examples in the current Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard) developer seed. This code example illustrates the point sufficiently.
*#*# Please leave the clarification as-is even if you feel you must RE-REJECT (add-on, don't revert). My original points were lost when they were taken out of context and moved here. -[[User::JamesCraig|JamesCraig]]
*# To avoid [[i18n]] issues, microformats should keep its hands off content (this also affects [[hReview]]). [[abbr-design-pattern]] doesn't seem the right solution here. Someone from France suggested elsewhere to use the class value '''telwork''', etc. but again it's a dubious solution (remember that a ''tel'' can have a type of ''voice'' and ''work'' '''at the same time'''). I suggest considering:<pre><nowiki>
<span class="tel home pref" xml:lang="es">
  Casa (preferido):
  <span class="value">+1.415.555.1212</span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>It could be argued that somehow this solution violates the microformats [[principles|principle of visible data]]. Maybe it does, but [[i18n]] should come first because otherwise microformats violates the first rule: '''solve a specific problem''' (and the last: "enable and encourage decentralized and distributed development, content, services: explicitly encourage the original 'spirit of the Web'"). -[[User:XavierBadosa|Xavier Badosa]]

*#** Not sure how other parsers treat this, but Cognition will create two categories based on this. One because of the [rel-tag], based on the final component of the URL; and the second category because of class=category, based on the node text. [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)

*#** [http://buzzword.org.uk/cognition/ Cognition] doesn't specifically support this format - they'll be parsed as two separate hCards. The "outer" hCard will have an "agent" property containing the unparsed node text for the inner hCard, as if you'd used a plain string for the agent as per the previous example. If you want to provide an hCard for the agent, and have it parsed as such, Cognition requires that you use: <code>&lt;div class=&quot;agent vcard&quot;&gt;&hellip;&lt;/div&gt;</code>. (There is also the separate issue that it is illegal in HTML to nest a DIV within a SPAN.) [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)
*#* What about <code>&lt;a class=&quot;agent&quot; href=&quot;card.vcf&quot;&gt;&hellip;&lt;/a&gt;</code>?

*# Does <code>&lt;acronym&gt;</code> work like <code>&lt;abbr&gt;</code>?
*#* Not as per spec, but some parsers do treat it like <code>&lt;abbr&gt;</code>. [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)
*# Is this allowed: <code><nowiki>&lt;div class=&quot;photo&quot;&gt;http://example.com/photo.jpg&lt;/div&gt;</nowiki></code>?

*# Is it allowed to use <code><nowiki>http://</nowiki></code> URLs in <code>email</code>? or <code><nowiki>mailto:</nowiki></code> in <code>url</code>?
*#* Non-SMTP e-mail addresses can be used - the presence of a e-mail "type" of "x400" confirms this - so e-mail addresses which don't start with "mailto:" and do not contain an @-sign are theoretically possible. But given the prevalence of SMTP for mail delivery on the modern Internet, I don't see why this would be useful. For "url" it is often useful to encode non-HTTP URIs, such as FTP addresses or URIs for use with various instant messaging protocols, but given the existence of the "email" property, I don't see that it makes sense to encode "mailto" URIs. [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)
*# Is it allowed/required to use <code>mailto:</code> when e-mail is in non-<code>&lt;a&gt;</code>, e.g. <code><nowiki>&lt;span class=&quot;email&quot;&gt;mailto:joe@example.com&lt;/span&gt;</nowiki></code>
*#* Yes, but for copy-and-pastability I'd recommend leaving out the "mailto:" prefix. [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)
*# If value of a property is empty (<code><nowiki>&lt;span class=&quot;email&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</nowiki></code>) should it be interpreted as unknown value? ignored completely like it didn't exist? an error?
*# Can hCard contain nested hCard <i>anywhere</i>? or only outside any property or only inside <code>agent</code>?
*#* Yes, though naive parsers may have problems. [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)
*# Can <code>organi'''s'''ation-name</code> (note spelling) be interpreted by parsers?
*#* It should not. [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)
*# Is <code>type</code> class ignored in values anywhere? It is ignored in <code>&lt;div class=&quot;tel&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;type&quot;&gt;Work&lt;/span&gt; 555&lt;/div&gt;</code>, but is it in <code>&lt;div class=&quot;fn&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;type&quot;&gt;Work&lt;/span&gt; Joe&lt;/div&gt;</code>?
*#* It doesn't have any special meaning within "fn", so should not be ignored. That is, the person's name would be parsed as "Work Joe". [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 08:30, 1 Jun 2008 (PDT)

*# RFC 2426 allows TYPE for LABEL, however [[hcard-cheatsheet|hCard cheatsheet]] does not list any subproperties for <code>label</code>. Is this intentional? Is <code>label</code>'s <code>type</code> allowed in hCard?
** I raised this very issue on the mailing list about a month ago, but received no responses. Given that hCard claims to be a "a 1:1 representation of vCard (RFC2426) properties and values in semantic HTML or XHTML" (direct quote from [[hcard|spec]]), I think it's reasonable to infer that these types *are* allowed, but simply undocumented so far. I'll be including support for them in the next alpha of Cognition. [[User:TobyInk|TobyInk]] 23:59, 15 Jun 2008 (PDT)

These are externally raised issues about hCard with broadly varying degrees of merit. Thus some issues are REJECTED for a number of obvious reasons (but still documented here in case they are re-raised), and others contain longer discussions. Some issues may be ACCEPTED and perhaps cause changes or improved explanations in the spec.

IMPORTANT: Please read the hCard FAQ and the hCard resolved issues before giving any feedback or raising any issues as your feedback/issues may already be resolved/answered.

Submitted issues may (and probably will) be edited and rewritten for better terseness, clarity, calmness, rationality, and as neutral a point of view as possible. Write your issues well. — Tantek

For matters relating to the vCard specification itself, see vcard-errata and vcard-suggestions.

template

Consider using this format (copy and paste this to the end of the list to add your issues; replace ~~~ with an external link if preferred) to report issues or feedback, so that issues can show up in hAtom subscriptions of this issues page. If open issues lack this markup, please add it.

Please post one issue per entry, to make them easier to manage. Avoid combining multiple issues into single reports, as this can confuse or muddle feedback, and puts a burden of separating the discrete issues onto someone else who 1. may not have the time, and 2. may not understand the issue in the same way as the original reporter.
