Yes, but <abbr> just makes more sense
1) because it's a better match to what the XHTML actually means
2) because abbr data is visible to users without viewing the code,
<object> is not (usually)
Hi, so the semantic web and W3C reccomends the use of markups in the
right way that markup as created.
So the markup <abbr> as for "abbreviation" it match for the date in this way:
<abbr title="January">Jan</abbr>
In this example I used abbr to indicate an abbreviated form of
January. Right way also for weeksday names like Mon (Monday) and
others...
Other specific accessibility markup is <acronym> for the use with
acronym right. Example:
<acronym title="National Aeronautics and Space Administration">NASA</acronym>
In this way, <object> is used in order to include multimedia or other
generic object.
So, I'm sorry but have just joined in this list. What is the problem with data?
Regards,
Simone
