CSS Combinators: Using General Siblings
Posted: January 24th, 2012, 10:00pm MST
As one of the most underrated facilities of the CSS specification, combinators are powerful tools that allow you to improve the assignment of styles to elements on a web page. While their functionality remained forgotten in a dark corner for many years, due to the lack of a proper support by some browser vendors (with Internet Explorer clearly leading the crowd), things have changed for good. Now it's possible to utilize them in a pretty cross-browser fashion. The best way to demonstrate how useful combinators can be is through some concrete, functional code samples. In keeping with this req... -
HTML5 Boilerplate Introduction
Posted: January 22nd, 2012, 10:00pm MST
Despite the lack of support from Internet Explorer 7/8 for most of the features included with HTML5, it's hard to ignore the hype that the standard has generated. Even though the migration process was at first somewhat slow, the number of websites that now use HTML5 as their backbone has grown at an exponential rate. There's a good reason for that: while it can't be considered an actual revolution, HTML5 is undeniably an evolution toward the creation of richer, cleaner and more semantic web pages. Nevertheless, the path to building cross-browser HTML5-based websites often calls for a delicat... -
Intro to CSS Combinators
Posted: January 19th, 2012, 6:00am MST
Combinators are quite possibly one of the most underrated features of CSS. However, the indifferent attitude with which programmers treat them wasn't because of their useless nature or limited functionality. In fact, as with many other forgotten facilities provided by the specification, many browser vendors included quot;support quot; for combinators that was buggy, poor, and in the worse case, simply non-existent. Despite this, today there's new hope for getting combinators up and running, as most browsers (yes, even Internet Explorer 7 and up) allow you to use them in a pretty confident ... -
New API Platform for HTML5
Posted: January 17th, 2012, 6:00am MST
As for the reasoning behind the API platform's launch, AT amp;T's chief marketing officer David Christopher used the AT amp;T Developer Summit at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to say that it was done to address fragmentation issues. App developers typically have the tedious task of rewriting native applications for Android devices, BlackBerrys, iPhones, and Windows Phones. By creating HTML5 apps, the process is simplified, as users of different devices can access them via browsers, all while maintaining the look and feel of native apps. Christopher's stance was strengthened by ... -

BBC Adopts HTML 5, Mozilla Addresses Issues
Posted: January 2nd, 2012, 10:00pm MST
The move towards HTML5 means that the BBC followers who use various browsers and increasingly popular platforms such as Android and iOS will get to enjoy its wide variety of video content. It took some time for the BBC to finally make the transition to HTML5, as the company expressed concerns about how it would protect the widespread distribution of its proprietary content on the web in the absence of Flash's DRM controls. Rather than making the transformation in a single shot, the BBC ran a test program that instituted HTML5 solely on its site's Health section. Many criticized the company ...
