best way to present "hall of fame"

[Sebastian Kurt]

Hi,
I want to present some results of former years of our sports club.
Example: 10.Platz Junioren Buchholz, Gregor
Now I'm thinking of the best way to put it into Tags, that can be reused
and formatted by CSS.

<p class="result">
<span class="rank">10.Platz</span>
<span class="age">Junioren</span>
<span class="name">Buchholz, Gregor</span>
<p>

IMHO this is much code for little data, but I have no idea how to do it
some other way? Do you?

thx Sebastian Kurt

IMHO this is much code for little data,
It seems that way, but that's just the way it is sometimes. :-) I think this
is all fine--if you really want to use a different style for each kind of
data. If not, then this probably *is* too much code.
but I have no idea how to do it
some other way? Do you?

Presumably as _sets_ of such data? That calls for tables.

Doesn't look like a _paragraph_ to me.

But as a row of a table, in the appropriate syntactic context of course,
it makes a lot of sense:

<tr>
<td class="rank">10. Platz</td>
<td class="age">Junioren</td>
<td class="name">Buchholz, Gregor</td>
</tr>

Using class for each <td> is the safest way to ensure that you can style
the table conveniently.

but tables are much more overhead... (?)

but using a table seems not making sense because there is often only one
line.

How is that relevant? If the information is a table, then no markup
besides <table> is appropriate.

<p class="result">
<span class="rank">10.Platz</span>
<span class="age">Junioren</span>
<span class="name">Buchholz, Gregor</span>
