Plain Old Semantic HTML (POSH)

Benvido á páxina de POSH.

Orixes

O acrónimo 'POSH foi acuñado o 6 de April 2007 no canal de IRC de microformatos por <kwijibo>, coma unha abreviatura para "plain old semantic HTML". Unha discusión entre John Allsopp, Tantek Çelik, Jeremy Keith, and Chris Messina no Microformats Dinner 2007 April 18 following Web 2.0 Expo relanzou a idea de POSH e a importancia de promover os obxetivos de POSH, do que están feitos os microformatos e son un subconxunto propio del.

Por qué

The term semantic-html is a mouthful, and belies both how simple it is, how well established it is among modern web designers, and the fact that it has benefits far beyond the obvious doing the right thing for the Web by using semantic markup. We need a simple short mnemonic term that captures the essence of the concept, and is easily verbed (to posh, poshify, poshed up).

O termo html semántico é un, e ademáis oculta o simple que é, o ben asentado que está entre os deseñadores web modernos e o feito de que aporta beneficios máis aló do obvio de facer o correcto para a Web usando marcado semántico. Precisamos un un curto termo nemotécnico que capture a esencia do concepto e sexa facilmente conxugable ( to posh, poshify, poshed up).

What

POSH encapsulates the best practices of using semantic HTML to author web pages. Semantic HTML is the subset of HTML 4.01 (or XHTML 1.0) elements and attributes that are semantic rather than presentational. The best way to learn and understand POSH is to do it. Pick a page on your web site to begin with, and apply the POSH Checklist to it. Continue with the POSH Process. Read POSH Resources to learn more about POSH.

POSH recolle as mellores prácticas do uso de HTML semántico para os autores de páxinas web. O HTML semántico é un subconxunto de elementos e atributos HTML 4.01 (ou XHTML 1.0) que son semánticos máis ca de presentación. A mellor maneira para aprender e entender POSH e facelo.

Come up with more ideas to help spread POSH. Here are a few.
- Hold a PoshPit - a one or half day marathon session mixing semantic HTML experts with folks who maintain/run web sites in general and see how many websites you can collectively upgrade to POSH during the course of the day.
