HTML 5

  1. HTML 5 New Tags
    There are a number of new tags that the draft proposes to add to HTML. Here is a list of the new tags and the closest equivalent in HTML 4.
     
  2. HTML 5 New Form Fields
    There are quite a few new input fields that HTML 5 proposes to allow us to add to forms.
     
  3. Tags Removed From HTML 5
    As HTML 4 removed most of the unnecessary tags from HTML there are not many that HTML 5 proposes to remove.
     
  4. Changed meanings in HTML 5
    HTML 5 proposes to change the meanings of several tags but doesn't propose to introduce an identifier to allow you to tell that a web page is supposed to be HTML 5 rather than HTML 2.
     
  5. Attributes Dropped From HTML 5
    Not a complete list of all the attributes that HTML 5 proposes to drop. All the ones that are common to most tags are listed along with a few whose removal will possibly cause problems.

  7. Combo Boxes
    HTML 5 adds this useful form field type.
     
  8. "HTML5 and CSS3 For The Real World"
    This book demonstrates how you can use HTML 5 even in browsers that don't support it.
     
  9. HTML 5 And Outdated Coding
    For some unexplainable reason some proposals for HTML 5 are to reintroduce old ways of coding that were needed for really old versions of IE which are now rarely needed and will be long gone by the time HTML 5 is properly supported - kind of like suggesting that hay should be reintroduced as a fuel source for transport.
     
  10. "required" is not Required
    This HTML 5 attribute has already been made completely superfluous by another HTML 5 attribute.
     
  11. The Difference the new Block Tags Make
    What purpose do these tags serve and is there a better alternative?
     
  12. Web Standards
    What is the point in looking at HTML 5 now when most sites still use HTML 3.2.
