Multiple hCards

Hi:

On http://jrickards.ca/hc
ard.html, I have multiple hCards. The Tails
Export and Operator plugins handle these multiple hCards
(albeit one at
time) but the Technorati Contacts and X2V import only the
top one.

Is there anyway to get either Technorati Contacts or X2V to
work with a
selected one, not just the first one?

I just exported that page through X2V and got 3 vCards. 
They're all  
in one .vcf file, though.  Do you want each vCard in a
separate file  
for some reason, or were you getting something different?

Peace,
Scott

When creating a page with multiple hCards, for example,
Sales Offices in
North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa,
Australasia, only
one of those would apply so you would want only the one that
applied to
you. In my case, I am trying to find a way of listing the
contact
information for various staff in our office and yet when a
client goes
to our contacts page, they need only download the contact
information
for one or a couple of our staff that they deal with on a
regular basis.

I am going to see if fragment identifiers work but I suspect
that they
won't. I will let you know the results.

Also, in Outlook 2003, I don't get 3 vCards, just one and it
contains
only the first contact information.

I tried Technorati Contacts too and the same results.

I also tried using fragment identifiers
(http://
jrickards.ca/hcard.html#arethafranklin) but that didn't
work
either, I only got the first contact (James Brown).

I just ran that fragment URL through X2V, which output only
the  
Aretha Franklin vCard.  Taking a guess as to why you might
be getting  
different results, if you're using X2V via a constructed URL
per the  
instructions of "ht
tp://suda.co.uk/projects/microformats/hcard/get- 
contact.php?uri=<COMPLETE-URL-TO-YOUR-SITE>",
that doesn't actually  
work with fragment URLs, because the # needs to be escaped
(as %23).   
But that's my only guess as to what the problem is.

Peace,
Scott

Hah!! Perfect! Didn't know I had to escape the fragment
URL.

Did you get only the Aretha Franklin vCard? Last time you
tested it for
me, you told me that you downloaded 3 vCards in one vcf and
I just want
to make sure that with the fragment identifiers, when you
click on the
links after either "James Brown" or "Aretha
Franklin"
(http://jrickards.ca/hc
ard.html) you get only one vCard when you click
on the links.

Yeah, technically all URLs in query strings should be
escaped, but  
it's mostly only an issue with fragments.

I get all three when I paste your non-fragment URL into X2V,
and each  
individual one when I click the fragment links on your page
(which I  
hadn't noticed before).  So everything seems to be working.

Peace,
Scott
