URL handling

An hAtom parser may begin with a URL to retrieve.

If the URL lacks a fragment identifier, then the parser should parse the entire retrieved resource for hAtom feeds and hAtom entries.

If the URL has a fragment identifier, then the parser should parse only the node indicated by the fragment identifier and its descendants, looking for hAtom feeds and hAtom entries, starting with the indicated node, which may itself be a hAtom feed/entry.

Finding hAtom feeds/entries

  • hAtom feeds are identified with the classname hfeed
  • hAtom entries are identified by the classname hentry
  • if the document does not contain an element with the class name hfeed, but does contain an element with the classname .hentry, the entire document should be treated as a feed
