"Adding useless HTML5 stuff but not critical stuff"



LOL a few silly customizable options is nowhere near as critical as the first large-scale HTML update in years.

few customizbl options? dis not options, dis criticl 2 browsin exprienc. html5 is jus bels nd whistls, nd w0nt be finish til 2020, so ders no standard on wats html5 nd wats n0t. besids, html4 nd js nd css is doin gud job, i dun c how html5 is critical at al

How is it critical to a users browsing experience?

Have you ever written a webpage in javascript maqzek? I assure you "html4 nd js nd css" is NOT doing a good job. There is compatibility issues between browsers, there's large file sizes for flash content, there is constant errors due to trying to make code work with all browsers, HTML5 is projected for much earlier than 2020, and it is more than "bells nd whistls", it will replace flash, most javascript, and many other currently necessary addons. HTML5 will streamline writing websites (which is a vast majority of my job), and I for one and incredibly excited about this.

HTML5 is looking to be a good thing indeed, however I wonder what they will manage to break when its implemented (Nothing goes to plan ) I don't think the guys over at Flash would go without a fight, as they are working on "Molehill" 3D API and such.

 

[Woody2371]

Yeah I think Flash is going to have to come up with some MAJOR innovations to keep their position on the web

LOL okay I'm pretty sure you're trolling now, cause noone is that stupid. This conversation is over until you go read up on what HTML5 actually is. "HTML5 can't replace flash becuz it is totaly diferent".

Go read, kid, then come back to me.

We've covered video players and games, anything else flash can do that html5 can't?

What are you talking about?

 

[Woody2371]

Maqzek, HTML5 has things such as the canvas element, which basically replaces flash. There are other things HTML5 can do, but I don't have the time to go into it. I suggest you upgrade your googling skills matey.

I never said Javascript wasn't required, please read my posts instead of reading things into them that aren't there.

as i sed, flash is very flexibl like Java, it can als0 run on mobile platorm, html5 wil ned sum browsrs with hw accel ON PHONES 2 compete wid flash on phons, becuz phons plae flash prety decnt n0w nd wil hav suport 4 hw accel flash dis year

I can't see how you can make a post like that, speaking like that.



Use proper English if you wish to put across a worthy argument.
