<span class="category">TRAVEL AGENT</span>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

TRAVEL AGENT


CATEGORIES Example 2

CATEGORIES:INTERNET,IETF,INDUSTRY,INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<span class="category">INTERNET</span>, 
<span class="category">IETF</span>, 
<span class="category">INDUSTRY</span>, 
<span class="category">INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY</span>

this hCard fragment would be displayed as:

INTERNET, IETF, INDUSTRY, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

3.6.2 NOTE Type Definition

NOTE:This fax number is operational 0800 to 1715
 EST\, Mon-Fri.

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<p class="note">This fax number is operational 0800 to 1715 EST, Mon-Fri.</p>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

This fax number is operational 0800 to 1715 EST, Mon-Fri.

3.6.3 PRODID Type Definition

PRODID:-//ONLINE DIRECTORY//NONSGML Version 1//EN

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

REV Example 1

REV:1995-10-31T22:27:10Z

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<abbr class="rev" title="1995-10-31T22:27:10Z">Updated: 10/31 10:27p</abbr>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Updated: 10/31 10:27p

REV Example 2

REV:1997-11-15

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<abbr class="rev" title="1997-11-15">Updated: November 15</abbr>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Updated: November 15

3.6.5 SORT-STRING Type Definition

SORT-STRING Example 1

FN:Rene van der Harten
N:van der Harten;Rene;J.;Sir;R.D.O.N.
SORT-STRING:Harten

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<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>

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 DRY principle than vCard.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Sir Rene van der Harten (J.), R.D.O.N.

SORT-STRING Example 2

FN:Robert Pau Shou Chang
N:Pau;Shou Chang;Robert
SORT-STRING:Pau

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<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>

Note: Not only was the string "Pau" was NOT repeated in the hCard (better 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 element conservation and use only one element for both properties.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Robert Pau Shou Chang

SORT-STRING Example 3

FN:Osamu Koura
N:Koura;Osamu
SORT-STRING:Koura

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<span class="fn">
 Osamu <span class="sort-string">Koura</span>
</span>

Note: This example, in addition to illustrating better support for the DRY principle, also makes use of the Implied "N" Optimization.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Osamu Koura

SORT-STRING Example 4

FN:Oscar del Pozo
N:del Pozo Triscon;Oscar
SORT-STRING:Pozo

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<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>

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

SORT-STRING Example 5

FN:Christine d'Aboville
N:d'Aboville;Christine
SORT-STRING:Aboville

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment:

<span class="fn">
 Christine d'<span class="sort-string">Aboville</span>
</span>

Note: This example re-demonstrates the same hCard advantages/efficiencies demonstrated in example 3 above.

this hCard fragment could be displayed as:

Christine d'Aboville

3.6.6 SOUND Type Definition

SOUND Example 1

SOUND;TYPE=BASIC;VALUE=uri:CID:JOHNQPUBLIC.part8.
 19960229T080000.xyzMail@host1.com

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<object class="sound" type="audio/basic"
 data="CID:JOHNQPUBLIC.part8.19960229T080000.xyzMail@host1.com">
pronounciation of "JOHN Q PUBLIC"
</object>

this hCard fragment would probably be displayed as

pronounciation of "JOHN Q PUBLIC"

unless your browser supports the MIME type "audio/basic" (defined in RFC2046 section 4.3) and has some way of retrieving "CID:" urls.

SOUND Example 2

SOUND;TYPE=BASIC;ENCODING=b:MIICajCCAdOgAwIBAgICBEUwDQYJKoZIhvcN

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<object class="sound" 
data="data:audio/basic;base64,MIICajCCAdOgAwIBAgICBEUwDQYJKoZIhvcN

 ljYXRpb25zIENvcnBvcmF0aW9uMRwwGgYDVQQLExNJbmZvcm1hdGlvbiBTeXN0
 ...the remainder of "B" encoded binary data...">
pronounciation
</object>

no display equivalent given, since data: URL from original example is incomplete.

3.6.7 UID Type Definition

UID:19950401-080045-40000F192713-0052

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

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

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

URL:http://www.swbyps.restaurant.french/~chezchic.html

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<a class="url" href="http://www.swbyps.restaurant.french/~chezchic.html">Chez Chic</a>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as

Chez Chic


3.7.1 CLASS Type Definition

CLASS Example 1

CLASS:PUBLIC

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<span class="class">PUBLIC</span>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as

PUBLIC

CLASS Example 2

CLASS:PRIVATE

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<span class="class">PRIVATE</span>

this hCard fragment could be displayed as

CLASS Example 3

CLASS:CONFIDENTIAL

this vCard fragment as an hCard fragment

<span class="class">CONFIDENTIAL</span>

Note: Because of the lack of a TYPE value in the RFC2426 example, I substituted application/octet-stream. Clearly for it to be of some use, the type specified must be some sort of key or certificate mime type.
