Re: [FRIAM] One more from the feeling awesome and inspired dept
I've heard of MathML having issues.. Do you know if something like webcompents+polymer or baking it into HTML might be next. And yeah Iike some things fire fox does over Chrome. History, addons. older browser versions. Wich is great. like if their's a gremlin in Acme's Latest. I can use Acme's Slightly Older one. It amuses me everything but I doesn't like canvas..I've found canvas useful as a backup. Unless it's changed Wordpress is really weird when it comes to JavaScript. Canvas can do some stuff pretty well without lagging horribly. (Loading slides for example) YAR!

Yes SVG and Canvas are HTML5 features that are very nifty. Canvas has an excellent Javascript API, comparable, though not identical, to the Cairo graphics library for C/C++. A big shame is that MathML seems to have died. It is only supported in Gecko-based browsers like Firefox, which has rapidly diminishing market share. So we still have to embed images to represent mathematics (poorly) like it was 1993. -- Dr Russell StandishPhone 0425 253119 (mobile) Principal, High Performance Coders Visiting Senior Research Fellowhpco...@hpcoders.com.au Economics, Kingston University http://www.hpcoders.com.au FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com FRIAM-COMIC http://friam-comic.blogspot.com/ by Dr. Strangelove

Going back over my weby-web basics...I seriusly don't recall when WebyWebs got to having good support for SVG and PostScripts. That is so awesome. Is that new to HTML5. Udacity sugests including them with Canvas something about compatability and fluidity/responsitveness. Either way that rocks rocks as a option.
