[uf-discuss] Basis for a validator (GRDDL)

Sat Mar 22 04:25:15 PST 2008

Hey all,
If anyone is interested, I've just released a newer version of
http://code.google.com/p/xmlgrddl

It's a PHP5 library for GRDDL; which can be used to extract microformats.

It will Tidy input pages, and you can force it to look for profiles
that aren't declared in <head>

See also:
http://code.google.com/p/xmlgrddl/wiki/UsageExample

The result is RDF/XML; and with a bit of elbow grease and xpath; you
could make a fairly effective, expandable microformat validator ontop
of it.

If PHP isn't your flavour, there are heaps of other GRDDL
implementations around too.
