Introducing HTML5
Suddenly, everyone’s talking about HTML5, and ready or not, you
need to get acquainted with this powerful new development in web
and application design. Some of its new features are already being
implemented by existing browsers, and much more is around the
corner.
Written by developers who have been using the new language for the
past year in their work, this book shows you how to start adapting
the language now to realize its benefits on today’s browsers.
Rather than being just an academic investigation, it concentrates
on the practical—the problems HTML5 can solve for you right away.
By following the book’s hands-on HTML5 code examples you’ll learn:
new semantics and structures to help your site become richer and
more accessible how to apply the most important javascript APIs
that are already implemented the uses of native multimedia for
video and audio techniques for drawing lines, fills, gradients,
images and text with canvas how to build more intelligent web forms
implementation of new storage options and web databases how
geolocation works with HTML5 in both web and mobile applications
