hCard uid

Most parsers I encounter take this code (fragment from
inside a
complete hCard that I'm parsing) :

<a class="url uid" rel="me"
href="http://singp
olyma.net/"><span
class="family-name">Weber</span>,
<span
class="given-name">Stephen</span>
<span
class="additional-name">Paul</span>
</a>

and give me a value of Weber, Stephen Paul for uid - the
intended
value was definitely http://singpolyma.net/  -
which is the correct
value under the standard, and what must I do to change my
code to make
it right if my code is what's wrong ?

this caused me a little concern because nothing seems to be
wrong the
UID value is most definitely http://singpolyma.net/,

So a tested it for you using 6 common hcard parsers most of
which use
X2V but different versions ranging from 0.8 - 0.11 here is
the output:

uk/test/

<div class="vcard">
<a class="url uid" rel="me"
href="http://singpolyma.ne
t/">
<span class="fn">
<span
class="family-name">Weber</span>,
<span
class="given-name">Stephen</span>
<span
class="additional-name">Paul</span>
</span>
</a>
</div>

AS you can see everything is as expected so this only leaves
me to think
that If the parser wasn't one of the above maybe its the
parser that has
the problem and not you.
