The hype today is all about the new HTML5, the newest version of HTML that has combined classic HTML with XML, plus more features for modern web development. It is also, technically, the new version of XHTML 1.0, and in the near future it will be the main markup language we use for computer-based website creation (as opposed to mobile devices).
With all its cool new features and all-in-one set up, web designers and developers alike are eager to get going with it. As we know, though, with any new technology we have to wait for browser compatibility to arise. It may be years before 100% HTML5 websites are practical to create. So what's the point in learning HTML5 now? Better yet, what are some uses of HTML5 that we don't have to wait for?
In this post we're going to go over some basic HTML5 snippets and uses that we can start implementing today, despite the lack of full browser compatibility. These are snippets that do have wide compatibility, or snippets that we can use for modern browsers with an alternative backup.
