Hi,

I work with Melvin on foaf.me. One of our users started using a html
page with RDFa as a foaf file.
They noticed that its not a format supported by foaf.me/VIX widget.
I was wondering if there are any plans to support RDFa? Or if I can
help in some way?

Example of a link.

Thanks

FOAF.Vix already supports RDFa. For instance:
http://www.ivan-herman.net/foaf.html works here
http://foaf-visualizer.org/?uri=http://www.ivan-herman.net/foaf.html

I will take a look at the URL you posted to hopefully see why it
doesn't work. Thanks for the feedback.

Regards,
Wojciech

Hi,

Sorry I forgot to mention how good I think FOAF VIX is btw.

Incidentally I am wondering if perhaps another solution it to stop the redirect in the case of VIX not detecting a format it understands and putting up a link to the file it is trying to process.
So the user could click on it if they wish.

Perhaps make it an option on the widget call?
(Displaying the link is the sort of thing we do on FOAF Me in other areas)

Just a thought.

Thanks

It was indeed needed for the embedded mode, but I've also changed it
in the standalone mode. The new version is now online.
Thanks for the suggestion.

PS http://foaf-visualizer.org/?uri=http://webid.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/hjs
doesn't work yet because of the RSA usage, not RDFa format.

Wojciech

Hi,

Thanks for the update and the change.

Not sure I completely understand the cause of the issue.

Anyway, by way of thanks I have recorded some foaf.me/karma for you here: http://reward.me/146

Thanks again.

Wojciech

I just did one more update and http://webid.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/hjs
works now fully with FOAF.Vix.
