Using itemprop="branchOf" from schema.org Microdata to refer to LocalBusiness's parent company
I'm creating a simple (well, it was going to be simple before I decided to mark it up with Microdata) web page containing company contact information for a business with two offices. I'm using schema.org and LocalBusiness for the two offices.
Here are the relevant parts of my HTML:
<body itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Corporation">
<header>
<hgroup>
<h1>Company Name</h1>
<h2 itemprop="description">Company description</h2>
</hgroup>
</header>
<section>
<h1><span itemprop="name">Company Name Limited</span> Offices</h1>
<article itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness">
<h2 itemprop="name">Company Name, Location 1 Office</h2>
<p itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress">
<span itemprop="streetAddress">Street Address</span><br />
<span itemprop="addressLocality">Locality</span><br />
<span itemprop="addressRegion">Region</span><br />
<span itemprop="postalCode">Postcode</span><br />
<span itemprop="addressCountry">Country</span>
</p>
<p><a itemprop="maps" href="http://maps.google.co.uk/blahblah">Map</a></p>
<p>Telephone: <span itemprop="telephone">01234 567890</span><br />
Fax: <span itemprop="faxNumber">01234 567890</span><br />
Email: <span itemprop="email">email@domain.co.uk</span><br />
<a href="http://www.domain.co.uk" itemprop="url">http://www.domain.co.uk</a></p>
<!-- itemprop="branchOf" -->
</article>
<article itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness">
<h2 itemprop="name">Company Name, Location 2 Office</h2>
<p itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress">
<span itemprop="streetA开发者_如何学编程ddress">Street Address</span><br />
<span itemprop="addressLocality">Locality</span><br />
<span itemprop="addressRegion">Region</span><br />
<span itemprop="postalCode">Postcode</span><br />
<span itemprop="addressCountry">Country</span>
</p>
<p><a itemprop="maps" href="http://maps.google.co.uk/blahblah">Map</a></p>
<p>Telephone: <span itemprop="telephone">01234 567890</span><br />
Fax: <span itemprop="faxNumber">01234 567890</span><br />
Email: <span itemprop="email">email@domain.co.uk</span><br />
<a href="http://www.domain.co.uk" itemprop="url">http://www.domain.co.uk</a></p>
<!-- itemprop="branchOf" -->
</article>
</section>
</body>
Where I currently have <!-- itemprop="branchOf" -->
, I believe I need to associate the LocalBusiness
es with the Corporation
mentioned earlier in the page.
How should I do this? Can an element id be used for this?
Thanks.
This is possible with the use of the itemref
attribute:
- Add
itemprop="branchOf"
to thebody
- Add an
id
to thebody
, e.g.id="foo"
- Add
itemref="foo"
to botharticle
Reduced example:
<body id="foo" itemprop="branchOf" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Corporation">
<span itemprop="name">Company Name Limited</span>
<article itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness" itemref="foo">
<span itemprop="name">Company Name, Location 1 Office</span>
</article>
<article itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness" itemref="foo">
<span itemprop="name">Company Name, Location 2 Office</span>
</article>
</body>
You can use @itemref for this, have a look at this example - I normally use Philip's Live Microdata service to test it.
Since "branchOf" refers to an Organization and an Organization has a url (like everything), I guess "branchOf" should point to the url of the Organization.
I think you should try this:
<p id="office-place" itemprop="branchOf" itemscope itemtype="http://www.schema.org/Organization"><span itemprop="name">Company Name</span></p>
