 About the Book

Incredibly, it has been more than 20 years since the first release of HTML, the HyperText Markup  Language. In the early days of web development, HTML underwent a series of rapid evolutions from simple text to including images and adding CSS to format text.
Then in 1997 the introduction of HTML4 hit the market and everything came to a stop. Sure, we saw  the release of XHTML, but there was very little advancement in HTML as a language. Why the hold  up? The reason is based on three major factors: computers were limited in what they could process,  the connection to the Web was limited to the speed of a user’s dial-up modem, and the Web was  busily being molded into a new medium.

About the Book

The fifth edition of this book represents a significant change in structure and content to address HTML5. The book is similar to the previous edition in maybe a third of the content; otherwise, it is an all-new effort. Most obviously, as compared to the previous editions, which focused mainly on XHTML and HTML 4, this edition focuses on HTML5, which represents both a return to the markup past and the unveiling of an exciting future of web applications. However, we do retain some information from previous editions because in order for this work to be truly complete, we must not focus only on the future but also present all the elements supported in browsers today, including the archaic, proprietary, and standard (X)HTML tags. These will still be encountered for years to come, and we want this book to provide the reference you need in addressing their syntax.

About the Book

HTML5 is moving very fast now, and even though the spec went
to fi rst fi nal draft in October 2009, browsers were already implementing
HTML5 support (particularly around the APIs) before this date. Equally,
HTML5 support is going to continuously increase as the browsers start
rolling out the features.
This book has been written between November 2009 and May
2010. We’ve already amended chapters several times to take into
account changes in the specification, which is looking (dare we
say it?) pretty stable now. (We will regret writing that, we know!)
Of course, instances where we say “this is only supported in
browser X” will rapidly date—which is a good thing.
