HTML 5
Introduction
HTML 5 is a proposal that brings a lot of new and interesting elements into HTML. For the most part, it is driven by Firefox, Safari, and Opera.
New Elements
The new elements are:
- canvas
- section, header, footer, nav, article: Describes the structure of the page.
- aside, dialog, figure: Semantic markups that don't quite fit in the normal flow.
- mark / m, time, meter, progress: Gives more semantic meaning to the text.
- Embedded media, with markup that could include the transcript or a description of the contents.
- Datagrid
- menu and command to describe menus.
