Additional HTML5 attributes request

Postby kfury77 » Tue Feb 26, 2013 10:00 am

Loving WeBuilder 2014. I like taking advantage of modern HTML5 technologies when coding websites and I've noticed that WeBuilder doesn't have tag auto-completion and shows some tags incorrectly as errors. Please could the following be added:

<main> (this is quite new and is already adopted by Chrome and the new Firefox beta)
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/doc ... ement/main

inputmode attribute for form input (this is useful, I use it to set inputmode=numeric for inputs such as credit card numbers, it then shows the correct keyboard on Firefox for Android)

autocomplete attribute for form input (WeBuilder currently supports on and off, but additional tokens are available)
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/cu ... tocomplete

Microdata support (itemscope, itemprop etc)

Main is probably still too new and they often remove things instead of making them standard but the rest should indeed be considered. I'll add this suggestion to the list.

The <main> element is now in stable versions of Chrome, Firefox and Opera. Its included in many web developer projects now, and I use it in all my site projects (along with header and footer). I hope you'll include it in the next app update as the red text marking is an error is annoying. :-)

We will be waiting for wider support to add this. For now, you can customize your editor's syntax highlighter:

Hi Karlis - thanks for the tip with the advanced 'Custom Highlighter Scripts'. I'll check that out.

The <main> element is here to stay and is becoming quite popular now, its shipping in final public builds of Chrome, Firefox and the new Opera. It's included in many front-end projects and recommended by some for building semantic web pages.

My other suggestions aren't that popular so don't mind too much if you're not adding them for now, but please consider adding <main>, as you already have <header> and <footer>.
