Scope of microformat[edit]

At present, the text content, in the DD element, is given class="description". This isn't picked up by the hCalendar microformat, because there is, it seems, no way to wrap a DD/DT pair in an element, inside the DL, to which class="vcard" can be applied. A search for a solution is being sought. Making each instance a table-row is one possibility.

A correspondent has suggested a separate DL for each item. I regard that as sub-optimal (and semantically dubious). What do others think? Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy Mabbett; Andy Mabbett's contributions 22:49, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
