Resolved issues that were raised in 2008.

  • resolved issue 2008-01-01 raised by Andy Mabbett.
    1. How are empty (title="") title attributes to be parsed? At the time of writing, X2V returns a null value; Operator uses the content of the abbr element. Such mark-up is valid, but semantically illogical. The former parser behavior seems the most logical, but results in an invalid vCard. See example.
      • ACCEPTED.
      • RESOLVED. to-do: hcard-parsing must specific how to handle to properly. Suggestion: analysis of any existing content that uses empty title attributes. If none found then simply treat it literally, that is, empty title means value for that property is also empty, though why provide the class name in that case. - Tantek

    1. How are missing title attributes to be parsed? This is both valid and semantically-meaningful mark-up (the content is an abbreviation, but we know not of what) At the time of writing, X2V and Operator both use the content of the abbr element; this seems sensible, and should, perhaps, be ratified in the spec. See example.
  • resolved issue 2008-02-04 raised by Patrick van Aalst.
    1. The <ABBR> tag is not supported by IE6; to style it, you'll need to include extra html, for example: <abbr title="2008-01-16T15:00:00-01:00"><span class="dtstart">16 januari 2008</span></abbr>.
      • ACCEPTED FAQ. to-do add a styling notes section that documents a suggestion for IE6 support. - Tantek
