[microformats-discuss] Parsing and class names

[Bud Gibson]

Parsing with multiple classes is not a big deal.

In XSLT 1.0, it is a bit of a problem because XPath does not provide  
an easy way to pick attribute values out of a space delimited list.   
XPath 2.0 (not very supported yet) provides regular expression  
support that can overcome this.

We have a javascript parser for xFolk that uses regular expressions  
along with DOM walking to parse xFolk entries.  It works on sites  
that have multiple classes like http://de.lirio.us.  The script is here:
