Webfeet formatting

Webfeet picks out dates/events/locations by looking for extra markup within pages on the web:

• Use of Stylesheet Classes
• Format of events entries:
  • Dance styles
  • Handling the date
    • Handing different events on the same date
  • Information in the H1 header
  • Markup tags used
    • Map references
  • The D.END tag
  • The D.SKIP tag
• Example templates:
  • Using a Defintion list - for a Dance series or festival
  • Using a simple table
  • Using a table with background colours
  • Using a Definition list - for a band
