HTML5 elements

Post by BillAnton »

Hi All,

Does anybody know when or if WeBuilder will support the new HTML5 elements?

* section: A part or chapter in a book, a section in a chapter, or essentially anything that has its own heading in HTML 4
* header: The page header shown on the page; not the same as the head element
* footer: The page footer where the fine print goes; the signature in an e-mail message
* nav: A collection of links to other pages
* article: An independent entry in a blog, magazine, compendium, and so forth

These are ALL very useful and make a much more streamlined code.
Regards,
Bill Antonacchio

generally speaking, they tend to wait until it's an actual standard. This 'pre standard' version is gaining enough momentum that if enough people ask for it, they may include it early. for now, you can setup some snippets/callwords to help you out.

moving this to feature requests.

Actually we are working on the new HTML5 specification (which is not an official standard, yet). I think we will add support for HTML5 at most after some 3-5 months.
Kind regards,

This is great.

I heard of http://www.modernizr.com/ but not tested yet. Maybe you can use it in combination or add some snippets when using the new html5 constructions.

Any one tried modernizr?
