Week 9 Reading

• So not only did we learn HTML now we are learning HTML5... what is the difference?
• HTML5 = It is the fifth revision of the HTML standard and is still under development today. How can one learn it if is still being developed?
• "It is also an attempt to define a single markup language that can be written in either HTML or XHTML syntax." So basically HTML5 is an effort to streamline markup languages. This makes me happy.
• The idea that HTML5 could be used to design web pages for mobile devices is exciting.
• I'm not really sure that I understand what Scalable Vector Graphics are... No actually I do not understand exactly what they do for me...
• And if HTML5 is a work in progress then how is it that many web browsers today can be HTML5 compatible? Explain that one please.
• Never mind. The W3 tutorial answered that one for me.
• Honestly, I do not really see much difference between HTML5 and the HTML that we are using now in class.
• I mean there are some new semantic elements but other than that there are very few differences in it for me. But this may be because I have not seen the evolution of HTML like other people have.
• What is the difference between HTML 4.01 and XHTML? It seems that the only differences are that XHTML is very touchy about little mistakes that you might make while coding...
