Product Examples

Typically, the metadata associated with this content is stored in non-semantic markup and proprietary formats. The purpose of the studies on this page is to serve as background for the design of a simple distributed product microformat.

Clothes
Link to product rather than actual product immediately available for sale. Personally marked-up and used rel-product ideas to link to the shop.

- Buy this Online (rel=product)
Mark-up:
<div class="hproduct"> <img src="#" alt="polo shirt" class="product-thumb" /> <h3 class="product-type">Polo Shirt</h3> <h4 class="product-title">Coxmoor</h4> <p class="p-v"><span class="property">Colour:</span> <span class="value">289 Rush</span></p> <p><a href="poloshirt/coxmoor/" title="Buy This Online" rel="product">Buy This Online</a></p> </div>
CDs
Additionally the site has links to products on Amazon.

<div class="hproduct"> <a href="#" rel="product"><img src="assets/images/timeline/amazon/kinks.gif" alt="Kinks Album" class="product-thumb" /></a> <h3 class="product-title" rel="product"><a href="#">Kinda Kins</a></h3> <h4 class="p-v"><span class="property artist">The Kinks</h4> <p class="product-buy"><a href="#" title="Buy this online" rel="product">Buy from Amazon</a></p> <p class="money"><abbr class="currency" title="GBP">£</abbr><span class="amount">6.99</span></p> </div>
The use of Non-visible property names solved the problem of having to include a visible property of 'artist', as this was not in the visual specification of the Ben Sherman site.
