It’s good to see I’m not the only one feeling that most CSS frameworks are missing the point. SenCSS really is a nice starting point for getting a site’s CSS going – especially for those starting out with CSS, SenCSS would be a dream.

SenCSS was developed mostly for myself. I noticed that the stuff common to most of my designs and projects wasn’t the layout, and thus all layout CSS frameworks had very little use for me (I’d be writing exceptions all day, no thanks!). However, There was a lot to gain from a smarter CSS Reset, vertical rhythm and a set of often used styles. Basically I wanted something that i could drop it, start working on my layout and fine tune when the layout was finished.

It’s been a long time since I remember someone talking about the cite element. It’s my favorite HTML element…

So, lets revisit:

Valid examples of the element:

<blockquote cite="http://yourreferencesite.com" title="Article, title, author, date">
<p>This is one paragraph</p>
<p>Yet another paragraph</p>
<p>Says: Your Source<a href="http://yourreference.com"><cite>Your source:</cite>
</blockquote>

Aside: technically shouldn’t forum software use something like:

<dt id="n33"><cite><a href="/profile/">Author Name</a></cite><br /><strong>12.12.12 00-00-00</strong><br /><em>Title</em></dt>
<dd>
<blockquote cite="#n33">
<p>comment goes here</p>
</blockquote>
<p><small>Forum signature</small></p>
</dd>
