Hi Lea,

The message of that spam is very familiar. I received similar messages from 
friends and a number of people I know in the past few months. It was very 
uncharacteristic  to receive this sort of email from friends so I emailed them 
and learned that their gmail accounts got hacked and they were not aware of it.

I don't remember seeing this guy's name, googled it, from his site I think his 
membership of wsg is legitimate. Maybe his gmail got hacked too.

Anyone of us who uses an gmail account, maybe got hacked too without our 
knowledge. It's unlikely for any gmail user knows about his/her account got 
hacked unless notified the recipient who received a spam mail. Maybe there is a 
way to do this but I don't know. I changed my password after my friend told me 
she didn't spam my mailbox :-)

You can split resources across multiple manifest files, though, as far 
as I can tell, the you only get one manifest per page.  Have you ever 
tried caching pages which themselves have manifests?

[WSG] Getting my feet wet in HTML5

2010-08-12 Thread Tom Livingston
List,

Here's a theory question ( i think) for ya. I'm working on a layout,
and am attempting to use section and aside. Properly, I believe.
But as I look at my layout, I'm thinking ok, i'll put an ID on this
section, and one on that section... and I stopped and thought Uh
oh... it's the same as i've always done with div id= etc. Am I
wrong? Is there still benefit to using section... I don't wanna just
substitute div for section... am I way off track already??

help...

Re: [WSG] Getting my feet wet in HTML5

2010-08-12 Thread Chris Knowles
Tom, I think the answer to that is semantics - div has no meaning. Id's 
are there for you to manipulate the look and behaviour, the tags 
themselves offer a way for third parties to glean meaning from the page. 
e.g you could build an overview of a page by grabbing the first bit of 
text inside each section, assistive technologies can benefit from 
knowing what part of the page is the main part, header, footer, asdie or 
google might give greater weight to any text inside a section etc.


The problem is that IE currently doesn't recognise these tags, but if 
you do this for any element it does...


script
document. createElement(‘ header’ );
document. createElement(‘ nav’ ) ;
document. createElement(‘ article’ ) ;
document. createElement(‘ footer’ );
/script

or use this which includes it...
http://remysharp.com/2009/01/07/html5-enabling-script/

except the issue here is that it makes your page dependent on 
javascript. Without it some elements will be styled in IE, some won't


(the above comes from Introducing HTML5 by Remy Sharp and Bruce Lawson)

Yeah that is a good point. Although doing so would require the person to
visit each page which has it's own manifest before it will be cached.


  Have you ever tried caching pages which themselves have manifests?


If you're referring to the page which references the manifest. The page
which calls the manifest is automatically included in the cache.
