RE: HTML 5, has anyone done anything more than played with it

2010-06-02 Thread Eric Roberts

Actually...from nuking the partition on my disk to having all of my software
installed with Win7 took about 6 hours or so.  Win 7 is probably the
quickest install of an OS I have seen as of yet.  When you go to a new OS,
it is always best to do a clean install rather than an upgrade.

HTML 5, has anyone done anything more than played with it

2010-06-01 Thread Scott Stewart

I'm starting to dig into HTML 5, and so far, apart from some of the
CSS3 attributes, I don't see anything that jumps out and says ready
for prime time. The browser support is spotty at best, let's be real
does it really matter if Opera supports something? If IE and Firefox
don't have support for something then it's not mainstream, am I wrong
here?

Is anyone implementing any of this on a public facing production site?

2010-06-01 Thread Andy Matthews

While I agree with you that it's not ready, one of the benefits to using it
is that if a browser doesn't understand something, then it'll just skip it.

And if you're deadset on running your code as fully HTML 5, you could always
output it as XML then render it with your own XSLT doc while you wait until
it's ready:

It won't even be mainstream then. There's still an awful lot of people out

The great thing (or not so great, depending on your view) is that
older browsers will simply ignore the markup they don't understand.
That allows you to gracefully fallback for older legacy browsers.

Re: HTML 5, has anyone done anything more than played with it

2010-06-01 Thread Les Mizzell

 It won't even be mainstream then. There's still an awful lot of people out 
 there running XP

XP isn't broke. I've seen no reason to fix it myself so far. Guess I'm 
one of those awful lot of people. If MS had given me an upgrade path 
from XP instead of a delete everything start from scratch install all 
your crap from the beginning path, I might have made the move to Win 7 
already. But, I can't afford the down time to upgrade. Maybe dual boot 
at some point so I can keep running and slowly over everything over. 
Later. Sometime.


 remember that at least 15% of web traffic (a hair over by my stats actually) 
 is still on IE6.

My main client is an office building full of attorneys using IE6. They 
don't care if it works in anything else AT ALL, but it damn well better 
work in IE 6!! Drives me crazy.


 that assumes that Firefox/Chrome/Opera haven't gotten to half market 
 share by that point, which they may at the rate they're growing. 

Please great and powerful Cthulhu grant us a standards complaint browser 
that maketh the entire IE line vanish from this plain of existance.
