Microdata does have something like @content and @resource?

Hi!!!! I am master student of IME and my thesis is about semantic annotations and i have a question about HTML5 microdata:

Microdata does have something like a @content and @resource of RDFa?

Because for some cases can be necessary...

Thanks,
Celso

Yes.

If you need to provide the content of a triple directly, rather than extracting it from the page as normal, you should put the @itemprop on a <meta> or a <link>.

That is, use <meta itemprop=foo content="My content here"> or <link itemprop=foo href="http://www.example.com">.

Thanks !!! But... i can use this outside <head></head> ? It's valid?

Yep, meta and link allow for this.

meta:
If the itemprop attribute is present: where metadata content is expected.
If the itemprop attribute is present: where phrasing content is expected.

link:
If the itemprop attribute is present: where phrasing content is expected.

In other words, you can use them inside body. I believe validator.nu already allows this, try it! Note that some legacy browsers move meta to head while parsing, so if you have scripts operating on this data you should be aware of this.

Code: Select all: <section id="annotation" itemscope itemtype="http://microformats.org/profile/hcard"> <meta itemprop="name" content="Celso"> <meta itemprop="nickname" content="Celsinho"> <p itemprop="knows" itemscope itemtype="http://microformats.org/profile/hcard"> <meta itemprop="name" content="Maria Claudia"> <meta itemprop="nickname" content="Yoko"> </p> <p itemprop="knows" itemscope itemtype="http://microformats.org/profile/hcard"> <meta itemprop="name" content="Ana Maria Moura"> </p> </section>
