The HTML 5 Guide Element Update Review

HTML 5 information on the new drafts of the 5th major revision of the core language of the World Wide Web, since 1997. Designers are both excited and worried about these changes. January 22, 2008, The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) released news that HTML 5 is a work in progress.

Webmasters all over the world are anxiously waiting for the release of the long overdue HTML 5. We all are so very hopeful we will finally have a language that is in conformance criteria for user agents in an effort to improve interoperability across browsers. Designers have waited for a long time to have a language that is compatible across all browser boards, and we are tired of using hacks to have our sites work in every browser. We all know that Internet Explorer, has their own rendering world, and pages load a bit differently then in other browsers. I am hopeful those days are coming to an end.

HTML 5New elements are being added to the HTML language, and old elements are being removed, and this will have effects on those that do not use or know how to manipulate CSS! Just from my own bit of reading I feel the new HTML 5 will be extremely considerate to CSS. I highly recommend that those designers that have not used CSS should now start using it or you may be in for a rude awakening.

HTML 5 Quick Change Card Better Structure

The a and area elements

Now have a media attribute for consistency with the link element. It is purely advisory.

Also has a new attribute called ping that specifies a space separated list of URIs which have to be pinged when the hyperlink is followed. This attribute allows the user agent to inform users which URIs are going to be pinged as well as giving privacy-conscious users a way to turn it off.

The area element, for consistency, now has the hreflang and rel attributes.

The base element

Now has a target attribute as well mainly for consistency with the a element and because it was already widely supported. The target attribute for the a and area elements is no longer deprecated. They are useful in Web applications, such as with ain conjunction with iframe.

The value attribute for the li element

Is no longer deprecated. The same for the start attribute of the ol element.

The meta element has a charset attribute

As this was already supported and provides a nicer way to specify the character encoding for the document.

A new autofocus attribute

Can be specified on the input except when the type attribute is hidden, select, textarea and button elements. It provides a declarative way to focus a form control during page load. This feature should enhance the user experience as the user can turn it off if he does not like it.

These elements allows for controls to be associated with more than a single form.

The input, button and form elements

Now have a new replace attribute which affects what will be done with the document after a form has been submitted.

Has a new template attribute which can be used for repetition templates.

The menu element

The script element

Now has a new attribute called async that influences script loading and execution.

The html element

Now has a new attribute called manifest that points to an application cache manifest used in conjunction with the API for offline Web applications.
