Last week the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) released the latest HTML5 and HTML5 Differences From HTML4 working drafts. HTML5 is the proposed next standard for HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0 and DOM Level 2 HTML. If you are interested you can see the WHATWG Editor’s draft HERE.
HTML5 – W3C Working Draft 4 abstract:
This specification defines the 5th major revision of the core language of the World Wide Web: the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). In this version, new features are introduced to help Web application authors, new elements are introduced based on research into prevailing authoring practices, and special attention has been given to defining clear conformance criteria for user agents in an effort to improve interoperability.
HTML5 differences from HTML4 abstract:
HTML5 defines the fifth major revision of the core language of the World Wide Web, HTML. “HTML5 differences from HTML4″ describes the differences between HTML4 and HTML5 and provides some of the rationale for the changes. This document may not provide accurate information as the HTML5 specification is still actively in development. When in doubt, always check the HTML5 specification itself.
The working drafts above are released (2010-03-04) and copyrighted by W3C (MIT, ERCIM and Keio) under the W3C Document License.
