HTML5 Leads a Web Revolution

HTML5 Leads a Web Revolution

1. HTML5 standard is revolutionizing the way the Web evolves, works, and is used.

2. the HyperText Markup Language, is just a way to tag parts of a document so that Web browsers can deal with them intelligently.

3. HTML5 is both a single specification and a whole set of technologies.

4. the Document Object Model; Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), a language to define the presentation and appearance of an HTML document; and the JavaScript scripting language. The term is often used even more broadly to include specific application programming interfaces (APIs), such as those that enable new browser-based graphics, geolocation, local storage, and video capabilities.

5. HTML5 has a standard JavaScript interface for geolocation, so that a Web browser on a mobile device can access GPS data without invoking a custom-written API to a GPS device or application.

6. CSS3, the newly updated presentation language, allows a developer to produce certain looks natively in the browser, without constructing them externally—say, in Photoshop— and then importing them.

7. HTML5 allows persistent storage of structured session data on the Web client. Unlike cookies, which can only efficiently store data in small amounts and have other technical limitations, this capability allows the storage of large amounts of data for access later when a connection to a Web server may not be possible or desirable.

8. It’s just continuously developed, like the browsers. Development of HTML will just proceed until HTML is dead.”
