Semantic Coding
Responding to suggestions, Jon Udell has hit on using multiple css class definitions to semantically code XHTML. In one example, he has a blockquote with two definitions: a generic “personQuote” and another to identify the specific author source.
Having struggled a bit with how to mark up bibliographic annotations, this may well be a useful alternative, although I suspect it’d be too unwieldy. It’s not clear to me, for example, how to markup page numbers in such a system. Perhaps it’s just better code annotations in my own XML dialect and transform it.
