Hello, I am the developer of [http://footag.com footag.com] and am going to implement various microformats as I think they are a wonderful idea and needs to be supported to make the web a prettier place.

hcard-examples-rfc2426

Ichigo: /* problem with BDAY information */

= hCard examples =

Example [[hcard|hCards]].

== Authors ==
* [http://tantek.com/log Tantek Çelik]
* Brian Suda
== Instructive Examples ==

=== 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 ====
* TBFI - Tantek

==== Site profiles ====
* TBI: How to embed flickr, delicious, technorati ID using URL property

== 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:
* http://diveintomark.org/projects/greasemonkey/hcard/tests/

=== 2.4.2 VCARD ===

</nowiki></pre>

This vCard fragment has one property whose value is another vCard, and could be represented as an hCard fragment with an embedded hCard, literally (with the unnecessary type=internet default omitted, and the implied n optimization):

<pre><nowiki>
<div class="agent vcard">

<div class="tel">+1-919-555-7878</div>
<div class="title">Area Administrator, Assistant</div>

=== 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>

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.

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>

== 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>

<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>

=== 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>

<a class="email fn n" href="mailto:sthomas@host.com">Susan Thomas</a>,

</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:

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

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

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

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

==== Example 2 ====

<pre><nowiki>

<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:

=== 3.6.2 NOTE Type Definition ===

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 ===

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.

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

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.

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

<pre>

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

=== 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>

</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:

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

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

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

==== Example 2 ====

<pre><nowiki>

</nowiki></pre>

<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:

=== 3.6.2 NOTE Type Definition ===

EST\, Mon-Fri.

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>

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>
</nowiki></pre>

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>

Note that both of these vCards are invalid since they lack the REQUIRED "N" property which is quite ironic, since these are the vCards of the authors themselves.

Nonetheless, these vCards can be represented by the following hCards:

== Test Cases ==

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

=== 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 ===
Here is an example of [http://microformats.org/wiki/geo Microformats geo page] as it can be included in vcard.
N 37° 24.491 W 122° 08.313

And the hCard example.

<pre><nowiki>
<div class="geo">
<abbr class="latitude" title="37.408183">N 37° 24.491</abbr>
<abbr class="longitude" title="-122.13855">W 122° 08.313</abbr>
</div>
</nowiki>
</pre>
