  40. # [04:25] <csarven> Hate to see http://adblockplus.org/blog/an-approach-to-fair-ad-blocking use <meta name="adblock" content="disable" /> instead of say class="ad" which could be far more useful.
  41. # [04:28] <@tantek> csarven, people will keep trying to use meta tags and other invisible forms of metadata - there's nothing much to stop it from happening. the best we can do is come up with better alternatives (e.g. visible data) and hope that overtime, uses of invisible metadata are displaced by uses of visible data.
  42. # [04:30] <csarven> I guess there is one small argument for the use of meta in this case and that is, it is cheaper to process than looking for all class="ad"s.
  43. # [04:31] <@tantek> cheaper processing is rarely (like almost never) a good (read: a deciding factor) in format design, especially anything text based
  44. # [04:31] <csarven> On the other hand, the ad blocker scripts usually try to match a domainname with their block list.
  45. # [04:39] <@tantek> csarven - have you had a chance to take a look at the value-class-pattern? http://tr.im/valueclass

  55. # [05:27] <csarven> Really glad to see tel type property get addressed as far as localisation goes.
  56. # [05:32] <csarven> As far as using an empty element, I don't think anyone would claim that it is an ideal approach but it is reasonable given the problem, IMHO.

  301. # [22:42] <belling> It would be any group of items, whether created by user search or not. It's not just a ul or ol, because there's additional metadata that goes into it. The OpenSearch Response Elements spec gives totalResults, startIndex, and itemsPerPage, but that's not a complete list.
  302. # [22:43] <@drewinthehead> what examples do you have outside of srp?
  303. # [22:43] <belling> There's also sorting/filtering, and sort order.
  304. # [22:43] <csarven> What are you trying to solve?
  305. # [22:45] <belling> 1) I'm trying to add machine-readable markup to any collection of data, which may itself be made up of machine-readable microformats (hProduct, hCard, etc.)
  306. # [22:46] <belling> I'm approaching it from the product perspective. I built these search results before I started learning Microformats (don't be too harsh on the HTML -- I'm aware of some flaws) http://www.rei.com/search/shoes
  307. # [22:46] <csarven> Have you looked into hAtom?
  308. # [22:46] <belling> Nope. I should.
  309. # [22:47] <belling> Since OpenSearch Response is mostly conceived as Atom/RSS, maybe that would make sense. But it seems incomplete.

  316. # [22:55] <belling> It seems to me that hAtom is good at saying "here's a collection of stuff" but it's not giving any information on what went into making the collection of stuff.

  320. # [23:00] <belling> Maybe what I'm thinking about is an extension of hAtom though.
  321. # [23:02] <csarven> Right. That's an arbitrary setting.
  322. # [23:05] <belling> The OpenSearch Document Description provides a means to capture stuff as URL parameters. It seems to me that there's value in putting it in the HTML.
