HTML5 Markup
Nowadays, the majority of websites are written using HTML5, rather than the older HTML 4.01 standard. All modern browsers understand the new semantic elements of HTML5 (the new structural elements, and video and audio tags), and even older versions of Internet Explorer (versions before Internet Explorer 9) can be served a tiny polyfill to allow it to render these new elements. With that in mind, let's consider the start of an HTML5 page. Let's get a handle on all the opening tags and what they do. This video covers: - Demo on Starting an HTML5 Page the Right Way - Demo on The Doctype - The HTML tag and lang Attribute - Character Encoding - Demo on Easy-going HTML5 - A Sensible Approach to HTML5 Markup
