HTML5 is coming, and it’s time to get acquainted. Written by developers who are interested in building things, this practical book shows you how to use the language in ways you can apply starting today.

Through hands-on examples you’ll discover what HTML5 is—and isn’t--good for. Just a few of the things you’ll learn about include:

• special forms and new input types

• handling video & audio

• using Canvas for drawing lines and shapes, specifying colors and more

• transformations and animations

• new storage options and web databases

• attributes extending the DOM

• bonus information on geolocation and how it works with HTML5
