HTML
We now support document.caretPositionFromPoint
We now support Node.contains(node)
We now return true for node.contains(node) , as other browsers do. (The spec says we should return false but the spec is probably wrong given the behaviour of all browsers.)
We now support Node.parentElement
We no longer taint the canvas data when drawing images where @ crossorigin is set on them
We now only fire onreadystatechange on the document …

HTML:
<html> <body> <div class="inner">I am some very long text!</div> </body> </html>
CSS:
div .inner { width : 120px ; text- overflow : ellipsis ; white-space : nowrap ; overflow : hidden ; color : red ; border : 1px dashed #333 ; margin : 20px ; padding : 10px ; }
Result:
As you can see, it's pretty easy to make text that cuts off in a sane way with this new property. Our developer page for the property also contains …
…HTML image maps. That means interesting effects can be created using image maps and more modern HTML / CSS / JavaScript techniques, while still falling over to the basic functionality in older browsers. The ImageMapster demos page has a lot of examples — the " Vegetable Tray" example shows off some of the basic features.
By calling $('img').mapster(options) , ImageMapster will attempt to bind to each image that has an associated map. An area within …
To repeat: applications developed in JavaScript/ HTML/ CSS can now be built and distributed as native Windows applications .
The core Windows services for graphics, i/o, device access etc. all have JavaScript bindings equally as rich as the bindings for developers working in . NET or C++. The Microsoft message is that you can now build any native Windows app using web technologies.
So... what will be the differences between simply developing a web-based app for use by IE10…
…distributing and loading applications, server communication, cross-domain iframe messaging, rendering HTML and CSS , authentication, security, and performance. Considering the authors work at Disqus it seems like a potentially essential book on the subject.
The book will be published by Manning, and an "early access" edition can be purchased from $ 35.99. Three chapters are available so far, and the example source code is on GitHub at benvinegar / thirdpartyjs-code …
…that leave us with? CSS, DOM & JS APIs, HTML, a11y, i18n, and all the other stuff that has legs out on the public web. More to the point, it would have the beneficial effect of re-focusing the organization around getting HTML5 done, getting DOM APIs done that don't suck for JavaScript on the altar of IDL "language neutrality", etc.
Organizationally, it would leave the W3C in a much leaner, more focused place. It's much easier to build a focused constituency …
HTML5 is the next major milestone in HTML and it's not just another incremental enhancement; it represents an enormous advance for modern web applications. A large number of HTML5 features are already supported in browsers, so it's time to start using them!
In our HTML5 for Programmers Workshop, you will learn how to create HTML5 web pages and web applications using semantic HTML5 markup and cross-browser HTML5 JavaScript APIs. After completing this course, students …
…basic approach as my earlier experiment, which is to define a getter that interprets property names as HTML tag names. When the property matches an HTML tag name, a function is returned that calls the startTag() method, likewise a property beginning with an "x" and followed by the tag name receives a function that calls endTag() . All other methods are passed through to the interal writer object.
The InternalHTMLWriter type is defined inside of a function so it cannot be accessed …
…quantities. And why do you need so much of it? ‘Cause the DOM, CSS, and HTML standards are letting you down. Any language wired up to the browser today is subject to the same fate, and the insane reality that these things are specified under different roofs in processes that aren't subject to the popular will of web developers. Python doesn't have it's DOM APIs decided by the W3C, they borrow the idiomatic ElementTree API from within their own community. WebIDL…
