Question

Is it valid to use a line break <br/> within a Microformat? Example:

<div class="vcard">
  <div class="fn">John Doe</div>
  <div class="adr">
    <div class="street-address">
      123 Orange Blossom Lane<br/>
      Calm Ocean, FL 33033
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Answer 1

you can use virtually any element you like with microformats, with a few exceptions. your markup example is perfectly valid, however i wouldn’t put the br element there. and you could/should markup the city/state/zip with microformats as well. i threw together a quick fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/jalbertbowdenii/jwcab/
