hCalendar at microformatique - a blog about microformats and “data at the edges” September 6th, 2006 at 9:12 PM
[…] For this years conference, Web Directions, I’ve just marked up the program using hCalendar, along with axis, headers and ids, replete with a link to download the calendar as a .ics file using Brian Suda’s X2V. […]

[…] hCalendar Last year for a certain conference which will remain nameless, (ok, so it was WE05) Tantek Çelik (is Tantek like Madonna, Prince and Sting, and really doesn’t need a surname?), who spoke at the conference as well, very kindly helped us mark up our entire program in hCalendar. This was particularly cool as 1. I am really lazy 2. The program was in a table (that’s cool, it’s tabular data ok), which presents some difficulties for hCalendar markup Sadly, the site for that conference has disappeared, despite our best efforts, and with it the best, and perhaps only example of an hCalendar marked up in tables using the axis, id and header attributes of HTML. For this years conference, Web Directions, I’ve just marked up the program using hCalendar, along with axis, headers and ids, replete with a link to download the calendar as a .ics file using Brian Suda’s X2V. I’ll write about some of the issues in marking up hCalendars in tables shortly, but for now, I’m just kinda chuffed with my efforts!
