Getting Ready for HTML 5Posted by Kevin Fincel in Web Design |
|
Hyper Text Markup Language, or HTML, is an image and text formatting language used by web developers to format web pages. HTML has been around since the early 1990’s and has been reformatted several times since its inception. HTML 5 is the fifth major revision to the HTML coding, and the first draft of HTML 5 was published in January 2008. Since then, developers have made numerous changes to the coding.
With support from all of the major internet browsers (including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple’s Safari, Opera and limited support from Microsoft Internet Explorer,) HTML 5 is well on its way to becoming the standard in web development. Since the coding for HTML 5 differs from previous versions, these differences must be recognized and understood to excel in website development using HMTL 5.
