Hi Matthias An earlier link you sent suggested that HTML5 was still under development too.
I need to be safe and fast so I guess the client is stuck with HTML4 for now. Just wished they could handle fonts with a little more options!!! No matter, the site is robust on all browsers so far so that too points at staying with V4. Which leaves me having to sort the style on every page ..... I better get started I guess. Thank you Neil Cooke ________________________________ From: Matthias Kappenberg <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, 19 July, 2010 11:01:22 AM Subject: Re: Web Programming - CSS and HTML5 Hi Neil, HTML5 is still in development, if I'm right ;-) Maybe have a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5 and/or google for "HTML5 browser support" or something like this. I'm using this site: http://www.webhits.de/deutsch/index.shtml?/deutsch/webstats.html to get some information for "browsers in use", too. If you have old websites "XHTML + CSS" is ok in my opinion. The basic idea behind HTML+CSS is to separate content and layout. One of the most important ideas behind this is to get "accessible" websites. If you like to play around with upcoming "markup languages", have a closer look at CSS3, too. But if you need a "working website" look for XHTML and CSS2. My 5 cents.
