Lovely article,good read, didn't know about the data atributes.

since html5 has been under use, from my perspective, codeing has become a lot simpler, take for example the Doctype, I never a word more than 


<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC ….


the rest was all copy paste for me.

with the help of CSS3, html5 is a treat to work on.

Yeah, very good post. Thanks for the breif.

I cant wait for MS to admit that they cant do browsers (or any software at all actually...) and bundle ff, chromer or opera with their os instead.

Until then i guess i will have to stick with html4 or my customers will be mad at me
