I noticed that for some readers the choice of english names can be confusing for examples in French and maybe other languages. Therefore I sent this clarification for someone off list, maybe it will benefit other people here ***** A citation is not a quotation. French English Citation ---> Quotation Source ---> Citation Let's stick with the english: Quotation is the prose extracted of a text that you want to insert in your own text. We use the elements "blockquote" or "quote" for this. Citation is the reference giving the source of the quote: authors' names, title, pages, volumes, etc. We the element "cite" for this. I hope it's clearer. ***** -- Karl Dubost - http://www.w3.org/People/karl/ W3C Conformance Manager *** Be Strict To Be Cool ***Received on Monday, 23 August 2004 10:41:42 UTC
