The web was redefined with the coming of IE 9 beta and its HTML5 support but today i am not going to talk about the IE9 beta version or its latest RC version. Today We talk about the Beauty of the web that is HTML5.
But what is HTML5 ?? The answer lies below
HTML5 is a language for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web, a core technology of the Internet. It is the latest revision of the HTML standard (originally created in 1990) and currently remains under development. Its core aims have been to improve the language with support for the latest multimedia while keeping it easily readable by humans and consistently understood by computers and devices . Many new tags have been introduced with HTML5 such as the <nav>,<canvas>,<article> etc etc..
But Now the Question arises How is it Different ??
The HTML5 draft reflects an effort, started in 2004, to study contemporary HTML implementations and deployed content. The draft:
- Defines a single language called HTML5 which can be written in HTML syntax and in XML syntax.
- Defines detailed processing models to foster interoperable implementations.
- Improves markup for documents.
- Introduces markup and APIs for emerging idioms, such as Web applications.
Html 5 though is not supported on all browsers but that does'nt mean we should not use HTML5
. Html5 is now compatible with the widely used browsers such as Chrome, IE 9, Firefox, Safari.. So you need not worry about the compatibility...
Html5 can also be used to create drag and drop applications online games etc etc which were earlier done by flash.
