=== Authors of Pages and Posts ===
[http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/global.html#h-7.5.6 Per the HTML4.01 specification], authors should be using the <code>&lt;address&gt;</code> element to indicate the "contact information for a document or a major part of a document." E.g.

<pre><nowiki>
<address>
 <a href="http://tantek.com/">Tantek Çelik</a>
</address>
</nowiki></pre>

By adding [[hcard|hCard]] to such existing semantic XHTML, you can explicitly indicate the name of the person, their URL, etc.:

<pre><nowiki>
<address class="vcard">
 <a class="fn url" href="http://tantek.com/">Tantek Çelik</a>
</address>
</nowiki></pre>

This could be displayed as:

 [http://tantek.com/ Tantek Çelik]

This works not only for whole pages, but also for "major part[s]" of pages, e.g. blog posts.

See the [http://microformats.org/blog/ microformats.org blog] (view the source) for a live example.  The author of every blog post on the microformats.org blog is marked up as an <code>&lt;address class="vcard"&gt;</code> element like the example shown above.

=== References to People and Organizations ===

A common pattern in blog posts is to link mentions of people's names to their blogs, and/or organizations to their home pages.  E.g.:

<pre><nowiki>
<cite><a href="http://meyerweb.com/">Eric Meyer</a></cite> wrote a post 
(<cite><a href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/12/16/tax-relief/">Tax Relief</a></cite>) 
about an unintentionally humorous letter he received from the
<a href="http://irs.gov/">Internal Revenue Service</a>.
</nowiki></pre>

By adding hCard to such markup, you can explicitly indicate both the person and the organization by name and URL:

<pre><nowiki>
<cite class="vcard"><a class="fn url" href="http://meyerweb.com/">Eric Meyer</a></cite> wrote a post 
(<cite><a href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/12/16/tax-relief/">Tax Relief</a></cite>) 
about an unintentionally humorous letter he received from the
<span class="vcard"><a class="fn org url" href="http://irs.gov/">Internal Revenue Service</a></span>.
</nowiki></pre>

Note the class names "fn org url" on the hyperlink surrounding the IRS.  Using the same value (or element for that matter) for "fn" and "org" indicates that the hCard describes an organization rather than a person.

This could be displayed as:

 ''[http://meyerweb.com/ Eric Meyer]'' wrote a post (''[http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/12/16/tax-relief/ Tax Relief]'') about an unintentionally humorous letter 
 he received from the [http://irs.gov/ Internal Revenue Service].

=== hCard and XFN ===
==== References to People in Blog Posts ====

In the above example, one person (the blogger) is referring to another person (Eric Meyer).  In addition to using hCard to explicitly mark up the reference as a person, the blogger can use [http://gmpg.org/xfn/ XFN] (the XHTML Friends Network) to indicate their relationship to Eric Meyer, e.g.:

<pre><nowiki>
<cite class="vcard"><a class="fn url" rel="friend colleague met" href="http://meyerweb.com/">Eric Meyer</a></cite> wrote a post 
(<cite><a href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2005/12/16/tax-relief/">Tax Relief</a></cite>) 
about an unintentionally humorous letter he received from the
<span class="vcard"><a class="fn org url" href="http://irs.gov/">Internal Revenue Service</a></span>.
</nowiki></pre>

It would be displayed the same as the previous example.

==== References to People in Blogrolls ====

Many bloggers are using XFN (often using an easy user interface like that built into [http://wordpress.org WordPress]) to explicitly indicate their relationships to the people in their blogrolls:

<pre><nowiki>
<ul>
 <li><a href="http://meyerweb.com" rel="friend colleague met">Eric Meyer</a></li>
 <li><a href="http://photomatt.net" rel="friend colleague met">Matt Mullenweg</a></li>
</ul>
</nowiki></pre>

By adding hCard markup to an XFN Friendly blogroll, you can explicitly indicate the name and URL of the person in addition to their relationship:

<pre><nowiki>
<ul>
 <li class="vcard"><a class="fn url" href="http://meyerweb.com" rel="friend colleague met">Eric Meyer</a></li>
 <li class="vcard"><a class="fn url" href="http://photomatt.net" rel="friend colleague met">Matt Mullenweg</a></li>
</ul>
</nowiki></pre>

This could be displayed as:
* [http://meyerweb.com Eric Meyer]
* [http://photomatt.net Matt Mullenweg]

For more information on XFN, see the [http://gmpg.org/xfn/ XFN home page], [http://gmpg.org/xfn/join joining XFN], and [http://gmpg.org/xfn/background background on XFN].

This technique is used in the [http://factorycity.net/projects/wp-microformatted-blogroll/ WP Microformatted Blogroll] plugin.


=== New Types of Contact Info ===

Since vCard was designed, there have been numerous other services that provide individuals with addresses or other means of contact, e.g. instant messaging, voip, etc.

Does this mean that vCard (and hence hCard) must be extended to represent these?

Thanks to the flexibility of the URL property, the answer is no, no extensions are necessary.  Instead, we use the proper URL for the service which identifies the service (protocol, machine, and/or path), and place the individual's address inside that.

==== AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) ====

AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) ids can be represented using the <code>aim:</code> protocol.  Many  who publish their AIM ids do so with clickable URLs e.g.:

<pre><nowiki>
<a href="aim:goim?screenname=ShoppingBuddy">IM with the AIM ShoppingBuddy</a>
</nowiki></pre>

Thus for hCard, we will adopt this existing content publisher behavior, and simply capture it as another URL for the hCard:

<pre><nowiki>
<a class="url" href="aim:goim?screenname=ShoppingBuddy">IM with the AIM ShoppingBuddy</a>
</nowiki></pre>

==== Yahoo Messenger ====

Similarly, Yahoo Instant Messenger (YIM) ids can be represented using the <code>ymsgr:</code> protocol.  And similarly many publish their YIM ids as clickable URLs e.g.:

<pre><nowiki>
<a href="ymsgr:sendIM?SomeYahooFriend">IM with SomeYahooFriend</a>
</nowiki></pre>

Again, for hCard, we will adopt this existing content publisher behavior, and simply capture it as another URL for the hCard:

<pre><nowiki>
<a class="url" href="ymsgr:sendIM?SomeYahooFriend">IM with SomeYahooFriend</a>
</nowiki></pre>

==== MSN Messenger ====

<strike>Unfortunately, AFAIK, there is no hacked up defacto protocol for opening an MSN IM session with an MSN userid (which themselves are just email addresses).  Thus we must simply resort to marking them up as email addresses, and expect that consumers may use some heuristic, such as "hotmail.com email addresses are also MSN IM ids". -Tantek</strike>

MSN Messenger (MSNIM) ids can be represented using the <code>msnim:</code> protocol. And similarly many publish their MSNIM ids as clickable URLs e.g.:

<pre><nowiki>
<a href="msnim:chat?contact=joebob@hotmail.com">IM with joebob@hotmail.com</a>
</nowiki></pre>

For hCard, we will adopt this existing content publisher behavior, and simply capture it as another URL for the hCard:

<pre><nowiki>
<a class="url" href="msnim:chat?contact=joebob@hotmail.com">IM with joebob@hotmail.com</a>
</nowiki></pre>

Updated 14 May 2006 - [http://www.wackomenace.co.uk/ Ruben]

Ruben, I tried this, and "msnim:" is an unrecognized protocol on MacOSX.4 (this is with the latest MSN Messenger for Mac installed and running and logged int).  Could you provide links to documentation about "msnim:" and links to actual pages that publish their MSNIM ids this way?  I don't know of any - [http://tantek.com/ Tantek]

: Tantek, Wikipedia's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Windows_Live_Messenger History of Windows Live Messenger] states that MSN Messenger 7.5 for Windows, among other things, introduced: "the msnim protocol handler, allowing Web sites to provide links which automatically add a contact or start conversations (for example clicking on link msnim:chat?contact=login@passport.net will start chat conversation with user login@passport.net).". The Mac version is notoriously lagging behind, sadly. --''[[User:Chucker|chucker]] 11:33, 29 Jun 2006 (PDT)''

==== XMPP (Jabber) ====

[http://www.xmpp.org/ Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP)] ids can be represented using the <code>xmpp:</code> protocol, e.g.:

<pre><nowiki>
<a class="url" href="xmpp:username@jabberservice.com">IM with username@jammerservice.com</a>
</nowiki></pre>

The protocol allows much richer URLs, see [http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc4622.html RFC4622].

There are not many current [http://wiki.jabber.org/index.php/XMPP_URIs#Jabber_Clients clients supporting the protocol].

==== Site profiles ==== 
Bloggers often indicate their identity on content hosting services using the URL to their home page, feed or profile on those services.  By labeling them as URL properties, these additional facets of identity can be publish in an hCard as well.

* [http://del.icio.us delicious]:
** <code>&lt;a class="url" href="http://del.icio.us/rbach"&gt;Robert Bachmann's links&lt;/a&gt;</code>
* [http://flickr.com Flickr]:
** <code>&lt;a class="url" href="http://flickr.com/photos/tantek/"&gt;See my photos&lt;/a&gt;</code>
** <code>&lt;a class="url" href="http://flickr.com/people/tantek/"&gt;Flickr profile&lt;/a&gt;</code>
* [http://technorati.com/ Technorati]:
** <code>&lt;a class="url" href="http://technorati.com/profile/tantek/"&gt;Technorati profile&lt;/a&gt;</code>
* Add more here...
** ....

=== Organizations and Departments ===

Departments are marked up using the "organization-unit" class name inside the "org" element, with the "organization-name" specifically marked up to distinguish it from the department:

<pre><nowiki>
<div class="vcard">
 <div class="org fn">
  <div class="organization-name">Sprinkler Fitters U.A. Local 483</div> 
  <div class="organization-unit">Apprenticeship Training Center</div>
 </div>
</div>
</nowiki></pre>

The department may also be part of the address, in which case, you may want to explicitly mark it up as the "extended-address" in addition to the "organization-unit".

<pre><nowiki>
<div class="vcard">
 <div class="adr">
  <div class="org fn">
   <div class="organization-name">Sprinkler Fitters U.A. Local 483</div>
   <div class="organization-unit extended-address">Apprenticeship Training Center</div>
  </div>
  <div class="street-address">2531 Barrington Court</div>
  <span class="locality">Hayward</span>, 
  <abbr title="California" class="region">CA</abbr>
  <span class="postal-code">94545</span>
 </div>
</div>
</nowiki></pre>

Note that by nesting the org inside the address we avoided having to duplicate the department name.

== RFC 2426 examples in hCard ==

These are 1:1 hCard examples for each example in [http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2426.txt RFC 2426].

Mark Pilgrim has made these hCard examples available as separate files:

=== 3.5.4 AGENT Type Definition ===

==== Example 1 ====

<pre><nowiki>
AGENT;VALUE=uri:
 CID:JQPUBLIC.part3.960129T083020.xyzMail@host3.com
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<pre><nowiki>
<a class="agent" href="CID:JQPUBLIC.part3.960129T083020.xyzMail@host3.com">JQPUBLIC</a>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

JQPUBLIC

==== Example 2 ====

<pre><nowiki>
AGENT:BEGIN:VCARD\nFN:Susan Thomas\nTEL:+1-919-555-
 1234\nEMAIL\;INTERNET:sthomas@host.com\nEND:VCARD\n
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="agent vcard">
 <a class="email fn n" href="mailto:sthomas@host.com">Susan Thomas</a>,
 <span class="tel">+1-919-555-1234</span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as: 

[mailto:sthomas@host.com Susan Thomas], +1-919-555-1234

Note: the vCard in the AGENT property vCard fragment is actually invalid since it lacks an "N" property.  However, the hCard version *is* valid, since I added the "n" class name to the example.

=== 3.5.5 ORG Type Definition ===

<pre><nowiki>
ORG:ABC\, Inc.;North American Division;Marketing
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="org">
 <span class="organization-name">ABC, Inc.</span>, 
 <span class="organization-unit">North American Division</span>,
 <span class="organization-unit">Marketing</span>,
</span>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

ABC, Inc., North American Division, Marketing

=== 3.6.1 CATEGORIES Type Definition ===

==== Example 1 ====

<pre><nowiki>
CATEGORIES:TRAVEL AGENT
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="category">TRAVEL AGENT</span>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

TRAVEL AGENT


==== Example 2 ====

<pre><nowiki>
CATEGORIES:INTERNET,IETF,INDUSTRY,INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="category">INTERNET</span>, 
<span class="category">IETF</span>, 
<span class="category">INDUSTRY</span>, 
<span class="category">INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY</span>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment would be displayed as:

INTERNET, IETF, INDUSTRY, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

=== 3.6.2 NOTE Type Definition ===

<pre><nowiki>
NOTE:This fax number is operational 0800 to 1715
 EST\, Mon-Fri.
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<p class="note">This fax number is operational 0800 to 1715 EST, Mon-Fri.</p>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

This fax number is operational 0800 to 1715 EST, Mon-Fri.

=== 3.6.3 PRODID Type Definition ===

<pre><nowiki>
PRODID:-//ONLINE DIRECTORY//NONSGML Version 1//EN
</nowiki></pre>

Note, this vCard property actually doesn't make sense as a  hCard property, since it really should be filled in by whatever code transforms the hCard into a vCard, e.g. Brian Suda's X2V.

=== 3.6.4 REV Type Definition ===

==== Example 1 ====

<pre><nowiki>
REV:1995-10-31T22:27:10Z
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<abbr class="rev" title="1995-10-31T22:27:10Z">Updated: 10/31 10:27p</abbr>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

<abbr class="rev" title="1995-10-31T22:27:10Z">Updated: 10/31 10:27p</abbr>

==== Example 2 ====

<pre><nowiki>
REV:1997-11-15
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<abbr class="rev" title="1997-11-15">Updated: November 15</abbr>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

<abbr class="rev" title="1997-11-15">Updated: November 15</abbr>

=== 3.6.5 SORT-STRING Type Definition ===

==== Example 1 ====

<pre><nowiki>
FN:Rene van der Harten
N:van der Harten;Rene;J.;Sir;R.D.O.N.
SORT-STRING:Harten
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="n"
 <span class="honorific-prefix">Sir</span>
 <span class="fn">
  <span class="given-name">Rene</span>
  <span class="family-name">
   van der <span class="sort-string">Harten</span>
  </span>
 </span>
 (<span class="additional-name">J.</span>),
 <span class="honorific-suffix">R.D.O.N.</span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>

Note: The string "Harten" was NOT repeated in the hCard, even though it WAS repeated in the vCard (3 times! In N, FN, and SORT-STRING).  The "SORT-STRING" property provides another good demonstration of how hCard enables better adherence to the [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-example1-steps#hCard_example_iteration_1:_DRY DRY principle] than vCard.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Sir Rene van der Harten (J.), R.D.O.N.

==== Example 2 ====

<pre><nowiki>
FN:Robert Pau Shou Chang
N:Pau;Shou Chang;Robert
SORT-STRING:Pau
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="fn n">
 <span class="additional-name">Robert</span>
 <span class="family-name sort-string">Pau</span>
 <span class="given-name">Shou Chang</span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>

Note: Not only was the string "Pau" was NOT repeated in the hCard (better [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-example1-steps#hCard_example_iteration_1:_DRY DRY principle] adherence again), even though it WAS repeated in the vCard, but in this case since the "family-name" and "sort-string" are the same, we were able to use [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-example1-steps#hCard_example_iteration_2:_element_conservation element conservation] and use only one element for both properties.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Robert Pau Shou Chang

==== Example 3 ====

<pre><nowiki>
FN:Osamu Koura
N:Koura;Osamu
SORT-STRING:Koura
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="fn">
 Osamu <span class="sort-string">Koura</span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>

Note: This example, in addition to illustrating better support for the [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-example1-steps#hCard_example_iteration_1:_DRY DRY principle], also makes use of the [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard#Implied_.22N.22_Optimization Implied "N" Optimization].

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Osamu Koura

==== Example 4 ====

<pre><nowiki>
FN:Oscar del Pozo
N:del Pozo Triscon;Oscar
SORT-STRING:Pozo
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="n">
 <span class="fn">
  <span class="given-name">Oscar</span>
  del <span class="sort-string">Pozo</span>
 </span>
 <span class="family-name" style="display:none">
  del Pozo Triscon
 </span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>

Note: This example unfortunately could not completely adhere to the DRY principle due to the "FN" using a *substring* of the family-name, and in addition thus had to hide the extra "family-name" string value using CSS display:none, which in general should be avoided.  Suggestion welcome for improvements on this hCard fragement.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Oscar del Pozo

==== Example 5 ====

<pre><nowiki>
FN:Christine d'Aboville
N:d'Aboville;Christine
SORT-STRING:Aboville
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="fn">
 Christine d'<span class="sort-string">Aboville</span>
</span>
</nowiki></pre>

Note: This example re-demonstrates the same hCard advantages/efficiencies demonstrated in [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-examples#Example_3_3 example 3] above.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Christine d'Aboville

=== 3.6.6 SOUND Type Definition ===

==== Example 1 ====

<pre><nowiki>
SOUND;TYPE=BASIC;VALUE=uri:CID:JOHNQPUBLIC.part8.
 19960229T080000.xyzMail@host1.com
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<pre><nowiki>
<object class="sound" type="audio/basic"
 data="CID:JOHNQPUBLIC.part8.19960229T080000.xyzMail@host1.com">
pronounciation of "JOHN Q PUBLIC"
</object>
</nowiki></pre>

this hCard fragment would probably be displayed as 

pronounciation of "JOHN Q PUBLIC"

unless your browser supports the MIME type "audio/basic" (defined in [http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2046.txt RFC2046 section 4.3]) and has some way of retrieving "CID:" urls.

==== Example 2 ====

Unique id: 
 <span class="uid">19950401-080045-40000F192713-0052</span>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as 

Unique id:19950401-080045-40000F192713-0052

Note: in practice I don't think I've seen globally unique IDs for "contact info" records published on the web, but perhaps I am not considering enough examples.


=== 3.6.8 URL Type Definition ===

<pre><nowiki>

<pre><nowiki>
CLASS:PUBLIC
</nowiki></pre>

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<pre><nowiki>
<span class="class">PUBLIC</span>

Note: Because of the lack of a TYPE value in the RFC2426 example, I substituted application/octet-stream.  Clearly for it to be of some use, the type specified must be some sort of key or certificate mime type.

== Test Cases ==

These are [[hcard|hCard]] examples which have been found to be particularly useful in finding bugs in hCard parsers (e.g. X2V).

=== Problem with BDAY Information ===

this example:

<pre>
    <!-- birthday -->
    <div class="bday">
    <dt>Birthday</dt>
    <dd>
        <abbr class="value" title="1985-10-27T00:00:00Z">October 27, 1985</abbr>
    </dd>
    </div>
</pre>

ought to produce "BDAY:1985-10-27T00:00:00Z" but it produces "BDAY:Birthday October 27\, 1985". interesting is that the apple addressbook is still willing to accept it in this way.

=== case-INSENSITIVITY of type values ===

* "home" vs. "Home"

this example works with X2V:

<pre>
    <div class="tel">
    <dt>Phone (<span class="type">home</span>)</dt>
    <dd><span class="value">+438123418</span></dd>
    </div>
</pre>

this does not, but should. but instead it becomes just TEL without a type in the vcard

<pre>
    <div class="tel">
    <dt>Phone (<span class="type">Home</span>)</dt>
    <dd><span class="value">+438123418</span></dd>
    </div>
</pre>

=== GEO parsing ===
The following hCard:
