HTML - Switching From Xhtml To Html5
I learned the basics of XHTML using HTML Dog, so I now have a basic knowledge of XHTML. I've been reading about HTML online, and it seems like I want to switch to HTML5, since it seems like it's going t become the standard of the web and make XHTML obsolete. What are the differences between the two languages? How should I go about switching my XHTML pages to HTML5? How should I learn HTML5, and so on.

To have multiple images in on folder and each time a user logs in just randomly pick one of the 5 or so automatically so they have a different view each time... Not even sure this is possible. Thanks Hi Folks, I was wondering if there was a way to dynamically load forms. The idea is that the user makes a selection and on the same page the appropriate form will appear. My guess is that JavaScript will be my friend but I'm new to this. Thanks! Thus far I've used Notepad, vi, and UltraEdit to code websites. However, my client uses Dreamweaver, so I need to build a website that he can easily edit in Dreamweaver. I am finding out Dreamweaver's "style" little by little, but can anyone here give me a few pointers? For example, I prefer to use div's, not table's, for layout. Is this going to make WYSIWYG editing difficult or buggy for my client? I prefer to use external stylesheets (in a separate .css file). But if my client tries to write new paragraphs with different font-styles, etc., won't Dreamweaver define new internal styles, e.g. "style13" in the <head/> section? Is this just an annoyance I'll have to deal with? Or is there a way to force the client to use the styles and classes I have specified? One thing I'll do for sure is set up his workspace so that the website conforms to HTML 4.01 Strict. That should help a little bit, I think. God help my feeble mind if <font> tags infect my beautiful code. Any tips are well appreciated! Ok, I have a fantasy football site going, and on the NFL Draft page, I want to display the order for the teams for all 7 rounds. You'll see round 1, complete he http://pzpff.pzproductions.com/nfldraft What I want to do is make it so that I can make this: <!--#include txt="round1.txt" --> then for each round switch it out with that rounds text document... all the way up to 7... <!--#include txt="round2.txt" --> <!--#include txt="round3.txt" --> <!--#include txt="round4.txt" --> <!--#include txt="round5.txt" --> <!--#include txt="round6.txt" --> <!--#include txt="round7.txt" --> Do I have to do this with php, or is there a way to do it with html? Probably a simple problem, but I can't figure out how to do it. I am designing a site where some of the pages need to be secured via SSL and some don't. I would like to switch between the secure and non-secure pages, but I would like to do it with relative links. In other words, on a non-secure page, say aaa.com/index.html, I would like to do <a href="https://aaa.com/secure.html">Go to secure page</a> but I'd like to do it with a relative page reference to hide the overall structu <a href="https:secure.html">Go to secure page</a> only that doesn't seem to work. Ditto for going from pages handled with https: to http: . Am I missing something stupidly simple to make this work or do I have to give the fully qualified link all the time? Thanks! hi everyone, Can anyone provide me canvas tutorials? I am keep to update more knowledge on html5 and its tags. If you can provide me related information. Thankyou. Hey folks, I have a background in traditional enterprise software, and I am trying to gain expertise on newer technologies. I will greatly appreciate, if you could help me understand, when to use HTML5, when to use Flash and when to use Silverlight. If you could point to some tools etc that will be helpful. Thanks for your help Heya peeps. I have a problem I'm trying to overcome as shown below (From another thread): I'm in the process of building a website where audio can be purchased and downloaded. I want each file to allow a preview, but would rather the preview occur on the same page, rather than load up a blank page with a quicktime plugin splodged in the middle. Is there a way of doing it? All I want is a basic play/pause/stop button. To control a piece of sound. It seems that I may be able to achieve this using HTML 5, but I'm worried that people won't be able to read it with there browsers. Am I mistaken? Thanks Greetings, Can some one explain me the difference between HTML4 and HTML5? what is the content management system, and what are the benefits of CMS? Do you heard the word Joomla? Hi, Im tryin to use html5 video so my video can be watched by most browsers and cell phone OSs. Having an issue. the link working in Safari (on win) but not in FireFox http://beerdiaries.com/html5/html5.html any idea why? thanks I was quite surprised to discover that a lot browsers are already starting to support HTML5... While the support isn't comprehensive, and it isn't universal - it does seem to at least work reasonably well - at least for those elements that are not tied to media: http://www.brucelawson.co.uk/2009/re...ml-5-wai-aria/ I'm already thinking about making use of HTML5 in new projects... I quite like the idea of <header> and other elements. i have to draw ball on canvas in html 5 depending on the input given by user in a textbox. ex: if a user enter 5 in a textfield, 5 ball should draw on canvas. Hi all, I have a web site that has some html tags and it works fine in Chrome and Firefox, however in IE8 and IE9 it just won't load any resources (stylesheets and javascript) and it gets completely broken. Does anyone know what the problem is? The doctype and html tag are declared as following: Code: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> and the content type: Code: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> i heard somewhere this is a war.. can I ask (not to familiar with html5) what about html5 encroaches on flash? what new elements/features? If it does compensate i know Jobbs will be pushing the hell out of it (html5) Hi, I am doing my final year project and am comparing two technologies (HTML5 -JavaScript and Flash -ActionScript). It would be greatly appreciated if you could take a few minutes to answer my survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CLVC23Z Thank You Hello, I wonder if it is possible or it will be possible to make the webcam (Audio/Video) streaming with her website as a webcam chat without Flash or Silverlight but with HTML5 or perhaps JavaScript. Or will it always must pass through Flash or Silverlight to make a webcam chat Thanks in advance I seem to have run into a problem trying to locally load web applications offline. I think what I need to accomplish this is a .manifest file. I cant seem to get it to work though. I have the manifest file, I have it load in the html tag, and I think I have the .htaccess file set up correctly. If somebody could point me in the right direction it would be appreciated. Ok. So I'm trying to create an HTML music player (local purposes) using Perl. I want to use CSS so it can be easily "themed" and I am stuck on using Perl since the second main purpose of this is for me to get some practice. It has to use HTML 5 for ogg vorbis purposes (that's what all my music is)... The Issue - Can't have a form action specifically scripted to run in a <DIV> tag. Was going to use frames <form action="foo.cgi" target="someFrame"> but frames aren't supported in HTML 5. What are my other options? I'm using mass perl scripts (basically every link/button click) so I don't want to parse the whole page every freaking time. Once again... I know Perl isn't necessarily meant for this nor the best option but I'm practicing Perl so I HAVE to use Perl and I HAVE to use HTML 5 for ogg support. Any takers? Preferably I just want to use HTML and Perl... but some JS could be used if it is only other option. I have a client I did an website for, the homepage has an Adobe Edge animation and it works fine except of course for non HTML5 browsers like IE8. So I was looking for a solution like a user agent where when the site is accessed by a non HTML 5 browser the div tag on the page where the edge animation is would be replaced with a .jpg I have looked at HTML boilerplate which I think could do this but I'm not a coder so if someone can point me in the right direction here I would appreciate it.
