h-item is a simple, open format for publishing details about arbitrary items on the web. h-item is one of several open microformat draft standards suitable for embedding data in HTML/HTML5.

In practise, h-item is almost never used on it’s own, but rather as the p-item in a h-review as a generic fallback if the item being reviewed cannot be accurately represented by either an h-card, h-product, h-event, h-adr or h-geo.

Example

As the only properties defined by h-item are p-name, u-url and u-photo, in practise only the root classname is ever actually required (thanks to microformats-2-implied-properties) unless perhaps you have some unusual markup structure.

<a class="h-item" href="http://example.org/items/1">
  <img src="http://example.org/items/1/photo.png" alt="" />
  The Item Name
</a>

Properties

• p-name - item name
• u-url - permalink URL
• u-photo - photo URL

Status

Background

h-item was extracted from the classic hReview microformat as a way of referring to arbitrary reviewed items which cannot be represented by other microformats but which required a “shell” microformat due to the flat property requirement of microformats 2.
