The block variant of the address element

On this page:

The address element represents both physical locations (postal, geographic, etc.) and virtual locations (http, email, ftp, etc.).

The Block variant is an adaptation for use marking multi-line addresses (e.g., postal addresses).

The role attribute optionally expresses the type of address. If omitted, the implicit value postal is assumed.

Usage Example
