Longer quotations, set off from the paragraph, are marked up using the <blockquote>
tag.
Blockquotes will often have an author (<author>
) or source (<cite>
) associated with it that needs to be marked up as such. Save-As-DAISY doesn't convert these styles very well from Word (Author(DAISY)
and Citation(DAISY)
) , so it's important to double-check that the correct tags are used in the correct place in the XML.
Blockquote with an author:
<blockquote> <p><em>"The hidden harmony is better than the obvious."</em> </p> <author>Pablo Picasso</author> </blockquote>
Note that the <author>
tag should be used inside the <blockquote>
.
Blockquote with a source:
<blockquote> <p>“Martin crafts a playful, enticing tale of a modern prodigal son.”</p> <p><cite>Publisher's Weekly</cite></p> </blockquote>
Note that the <cite>
tag must be placed inside paragraph <p>
tags inside the <blockquote>
.
