Measure Microformat Brainstorming
This page collects ideas on how to use semantic XHTML to represent unambiguously measures.
Guillaume Lebleu
Basic example with elementary unit using the abbr pattern and the UNECE code (see measure-formats)
<span class="length">5 <abbr class="unit" title="FOT">Feet</abbr></span>
Optional "value" could be useful in some cases, for instance when the value is provided in plain text:
<span class="length"><span class="value" title="5">Five</span> <abbr class="unit" title="FOT">Feet</abbr></span>
