HTML
Posted at Treehouse by Jake Rocheleau Many web developers are familiar with Twitter Bootstrap and have seen this library on a number of projects. The Bootstrap core is fantastic when you need a CSS reset along with other common layout features. It may not be the right fit on projects where you need a whole lot of customization. But for landing pages and smaller websites I think Bootstrap has become one of the easiest resources to start using. In this tutorial I want to demonstrate how we can build a simple homepage layout design using Bootstrap.

Posted at Broken Links You may have heard of Web Components , a suite of emerging standards that make it possible to build secure reusable widgets using web platform technologies. One of the first specs to make its way into implementation is HTML Templates , embodied by the template element, which as I write this is implemented in Chrome Canary and Firefox Nightly. If you’ve used Mustache , Handlebars or any similar front-end templating library you’ll be quite familiar with how the template element works: you just include it in your document (it’s apparently legal inside head or body ), perhaps with a unique id for easy reference, and add some markup inside it; for example: The template element will be parsed by the browser but not rendered in the page; the markup inside is considered completely inert , meaning no style rules will be applied, and no assets loaded .

At first keeping track of all the latest trends in CSS, HTML, web design, web development, Javascript, JQuery, PHP and so on, was rather easy, with a few reliable bookmarks and some snippets somewhere in my hard drive. With the years passing by and this library getting bigger, things got tricky. I ended up with endless bookmarks and feeds. My pearls got chaotic despite my efforts to properly categorize them and pocket was not much my style. Sooooooo..........

Getting HTML5 Ready - ContentEditable
Posted at Remote Synthesis In the prior editions of this series, we took a look at HTML5 parsing and CORS . This week, we'll take a look at a feature that, by itself, doesn't do anything terribly useful but, when combined with other features, can be used to do some interesting things. That feature is ContentEditable and it can be used to allow you to make any document regions editable, allowing a user to modify the text on the page.
Posted at Paulund Normally telephone numbers are adding to web pages as just static text of digits which doesn't offer any interaction to your visitors. With more and more people using the internet on their mobile it's time to change your telephone numbers to clickable areas to call the number directly from your mobile phone . On your phone if you want to call a number of a web page you would have to copy and paste the number into your phone to dial it. With this new features you can make telephone numbers links to dial just like you can with emails. To allow your visitors to directly email you from a web page you place a link on the page and use the mailto: in the href .

HTML5 for Creatives
By now, professional web designers and developers have got a fairly good grip of “ HTML5 ”. Yes, we know most of what is referred to as HTML5 is not strictly HTML5 at all, indeed a good deal is not even HTML , rather CSS and the DOM . But we know what it is, what we can do with it, what drawbacks and challenges exist. However when it comes to others we work with — clients, Creative Directors, CIOs and CTOs, well, let’s face it, there’s a good chance they’ve heard the term, perhaps some of the myths, and want to know more, but they aren’t as well versed in the nitty gritty. Don’t worry, we’re here to help. HTML5 for Creatives (a free PDF ebook) takes a high level, yet in depth, look at the capabilities, use cases, strengths and limitations of the whole suite of related technologies that are broadly referred to as “ HTML5 ”.Vintage format meets modern web tech: an HTML5 audio player with realistic controls. Today we want to share an audio player with you that looks like an old school music cassette. View demo Download source If you don’t know what a cassette is, you were probably born in the digital high-tech era, an era that is undoubtedly exciting and innovative. On the other hand, if you know what an audio cassette is, you belong to the older generation, the analog dinosaurs that know the painful connection between a pen and a cassette tape. The invention of the compact cassette tape happened 50 years ago, so it’s time to celebrate:

HTML5 is doing a lot for semantics and one of the key features I've been busy implementing in many of my projects is microdata. In this tip I'll share how to build a semantic breadcrumb that uses HTML5 microdata. Sites using microdata to markup their breadcrumbs also have their trail displayed on google search results like so: Marking up our breadcrumb is incredibly simple and in this tip I'll be making use of the ol list element as in my eyes your breadcrumb is an ordered list and should be marked up as such.

This piece is intended to help users who are comfortable with HTML and CSS but not so confident using JavaScript. I’ll (hopefully) demonstrate how you can use the incredible open-source Modernizr JavaScript library to solve cross-browser design challenges and conditionally load assets (CSS or JS files) based on a number of tests. If the thought of writing JavaScript makes you shudder. Don’t worry, it’s going to be OK…
