hCard Profile

The following is an XMDP profile for the hCard specification.

It's also available as http://www.w3.org/2006/03/hcard. See profile-uris for more details.

http://www.w3.org/2006/vcard/ns has roughly the same information with a different editorial style.

   HTML4 definition of the 'class' attribute.</a>
  This meta data profile defines some 'class' attribute values (class names) 
  and their meanings as suggested by a 
  <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-htmllink-970328#profile">
   draft of "Hypertext Links in HTML"</a>.
  All values are defined according to the semantics defined in the 
  <a href="http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard">
   hCard specification</a> 
  and thus in 
  <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2426.txt">RFC 2426</a>.</p>

Deprecated

2005-09-16:

The following class names have been deprecated in favor of singular names and the use of the "type" sub-property rather than class names for all of its values. hCard publishers MUST NOT use them as a class name.

• plurals:
  • additional-names, honorific-prefixes, honorific-suffixes, categories
• type values:
  • dom, intl, postal, parcel, home, work, pref, msg, voice, fax, cell, video, pager, bbs, modem, car, isdn, pcs, internet, x400
