Displaying Addresses


Insert contact information about you or your organization in address tags, like so:

 <address>   The Old Software Company<br>   100 Main St, Ste. 500<br>   Youngstown, OH 92123 </address> 

Notice the br tags at the end of each line to force a carriage return. The results look something like Figure 40.4 in a browser.

Figure 40.4. Use address tags to mark up contact information about you or your organization.


You shouldn't use the address tags to format any old address on your page. Try to reserve these tags specifically for contact information relating to your site, since search engines and the like might look to the address tags to mine information about the site's owner. If you need to format several addresses, like the contact information for your site's membership or something to that effect, you should avoid the address tag and define a custom style in CSS.
