Microformat Shiv

A light weight cross browser JavaScript Microformats parser

Browser Compatibility

The Microformat Shiv has been coded to be as universal as possible it makes the best use of what functionality a browser can provide to transverse the DOM. This means that it needs to be tested to make sure of its compatibility with each browser. It is still in the process of being tested against different platforms and browsers. Those marked green have passed, those still white have not been tested yet.
