JSON Serialization of Microformats

Introduction

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation; pronounced "Jason") is a lightweight, text-based, human-readable format for representing simple data structures and associative arrays (called "objects"). Although JSON is based on a subset of JavaScript, it is language-independent.

[Placeholder page to document the methods of expressing microformatted content in JSON.]

Implementations

Example Code:

<div id="hcard-Mustermann-Max" class="vcard">
 <a class="url fn" href="http://example.org">Mustermann Max</a>
 <div class="org">Organisation</div>
 <a class="email" href="mailto:mail@examle.org">mail@examle.org</a>

 <div class="adr">
  <div class="street-address">Street</div>
  <span class="locality">City</span>
, 
  <span class="region">State</span>
, 
  <span class="postal-code">12345</span>

  <span class="country-name">Country</span>

 </div>
 <div class="tel">111-222-333</div>
 <a class="url" href="aim:goim?screenname=aim">AIM</a>
 <a class="url" href="ymsgr:sendIM?yim">YIM</a>
</div>
