Abstract

In this rather long chapter, we talk about web standards from a mobile Safari point of view. In the first part, we introduce HTML5, its markup syntax, its new tags, and how it has redefined some tags from HTML4. We discuss the semantics of HTML5 and the <video> and <audio> tags. We also introduce the <canvas> tag, and at the end of this section, we show a live example of a slideshow implemented in the “Store” use case.

“It’s not just what it looks like and feels like... Design is how it works.” —Steve Jobs
