E-commerce definition lists

The title is E-Commerce definition lists, not definition terms. Definition lists are a valid XHTML set of tags we should all use when using words/terms/phrases that will have an explaination of what they are. I'm not good at describing it, but Malarkey is!

From Malarkey's mouth (fingers): A number of designers and developers who are working with Karova Store have asked me for recommendations on how to layout product range pages using semantic mark-up and CSS. So I decided to write a mini tutorial for our training manual and try it out here first. An Amazon style product presentation made from wholesome mark-up and free from unnecessary divs or classes.

From the tutorial: Definition lists XHTML - First I'll divide the definition list into Amazon's three logical information groups;

  1. Definition terms for the book title, author and product image
  2. Definition descriptions for general product information including prices
  3. A final definition term and description for the publisher's notes
