Introduction
In this part of the tutorial, you will discover interactive examples (you will be able to change the code and see the results interactively) of HTML features. Some APIs or features are not yet available on every web browser, so you may need to try switch from one browser to another in order to run all the examples.
Forms
Excellent, detailed presentations with lots of examples of HTML5 forms by:
New attributes for input fields : placeholder, pattern, autofocus CSS pseudo classes...
Selecting files and directory
- Use of the new "multiple" attribute for selecting several files at a time. In addition, uses the HTML5 File API for reading pictures and preview them : http://jsbin.com/ozacel/2/edit
- Use of the new "directory" attribute for selecting a directory. Works only in webkit-based browsers (Chrome, Safari) : http://jsbin.com/iyixaf/3/edit
Note that in the example the attribute is named "webkitdirectory" instead of "directory" as this is still an experimental implementation.
Url, search, voice recognition
The new <datalist> element
- Try this example that shows a <datalist> element in action for autocompleting an input field without the need of JavaScript code : http://jsbin.com/uwozih/2/edit
Declare <input> fields out of the <form></form>
Canvas
Good reference : http://www.html5canvastutorials.com/
Stack canvases in layers
- This example shows how we create two canvases one on top of another. Mouse draws in the canvas at the back, while the mouse position is displayed in the front canvas. Each the mouse moves, the front canvas is cleared before redrawing the mouse position, while the back canvas remains intact. Try it : http://jsbin.com/ogehin/2/edit
2D Transformations
- Try this example that shows how to translate/rotate/scale objects + how to save/restore the current context in a stack : http://jsbin.com/azacaf/3/edit
