To my father, Mr. Mahesh Kanungo.
Adoption of a new technology is always a challenging process, especially when it poses as an improvement of a popular and well recognized benchmark technology. The delay and doubts over HTML5 and CSS3 is the best-case example in this scenario. Doubts about browser compatibility and resources required to upgrade websites keep most companies, developers, and managers from making the switch.
Moreover, the new HTML5 specifications were announced by the World Wide Web Consortium in 2010, and some parts of the specifications are still under consideration by its working committee.
Instant Migration to HTML5 and CSS3 How-to tries to attend to those trivial queries of the web development community in general. This book guides developers or designers with examples from everyday code to help them with quick migration to the latest web standard.
The book is also useful for students who are new to web development or design to get a grip over the latest HTML5 elements and CSS3 properties.
Not only have we tried to keep the book within the reach of most common browser-compatible development practices, we have also included alternative solutions for better websites.
Analysis of the current website (Must know) : Before the migration of a website, we need to analyze and check the current website to get an outline list of all the features and tags that can be upgraded or must be made available for too-old browsers.
The migration begins (Must know) : In this recipe, we will take an existing webpage and convert it into HTML5 without disturbing any of the previous content or structure of the website. We will start with the document declaration and end with the most common structural elements of the website.
Microformats the smarter Web (Should know) : This recipe will discuss microformats and their everyday application in hCards and author-based content. Though microformats existed before the specifications of HTML5, their importance in structural data is now higher than ever.
Play it on multimedia (Must know) : Here, we will talk about the native file formats for video and audio, which are integral parts of the new specifications. This allows the web pages to be independent from third-party plugins.
