Blockquote and Cite
When quoting another person, assuming we’re talking about more than a few words — and being sure we’re not confusing it with dialog — the quoted text should be presented in what’s known as a “blockquote.” Furthermore, this blockquote should contain at least one citation (two are possible on the web, I’ll explain in a bit). If you do it right, this theme will reward you with a nice visual. Like so.
“The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect.” – Tim Berners-Lee,
W3C Director and Inventor of the World Wide Web
Pretty, huh? Don’t worry, the quotes are made with images, so if you want to change the colors, you just have to modify the “quotes” and “end-quotes” images. The mark-up, to make what I made above, using two citations, the text and the link in the blockquote element itself, is done exactly like so:
<blockquote cite="http://www.w3.org/">
<p>"The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect."
<cite>-- Tim Berners-Lee,<br />
W3C Director and Inventor of the World Wide Web</cite>
</p>
</blockquote>
It’s really quite simple. Just don’t forget to cite the quote using the “cite” element, otherwise you won’t get that second image. The citation and URL inside the blockquote is optional.
Note: The two images used for this markup — on this theme only of course — are the sb_quotes.gif and sb_end_quotes.gif. Use the preceding links to view these images.
