HTML5 and CSS3--New from Pragmatic Bookshelf
Develop with Tomorrow's Standards Today

Raleigh, NC--HTML5 and CSS3 are the future of web development, but you don't have to wait to start
using them. Even though the specification is still in development, many modern browsers and mobile
devices already support HTML5 and CSS3--but not completely, yet.

"HTML5 and CSS3: Develop with Tomorrow's Standards Today" (Pragmatic Bookshelf, Print: $33.00 USD)
gets you up to speed on the new HTML5 elements and CSS3 features you can use right now, and
supplies backwards compatible solutions to ensure that you don't leave users of older browsers
behind.

You'll get started working with many useful new features of HTML5 and CSS3 right away. Gone are the
days of adding additional markup just to style a button differently or stripe tables. You'll learn
to use HTML5's new markup to create better structure for your content and better interfaces for
your forms, resulting in cleaner, easier-to-read code that can be understood by both humans and
programs.

You'll find out how to embed audio, video, and vector graphics into your pages without using Flash.
You'll see how web sockets, client-side storage, offline caching, and cross-document messaging can
ease the pain of modern web development. And you'll discover how simple CSS3 makes it to style
sections of your page. Throughout the book, you'll learn how to compensate for situations where
your users can't take advantage of HTML5 and CSS3 yet, developing solutions that are backwards
compatible and accessible.

You'll find what you need quickly with this book's modular structure, and get hands-on with a
tutorial project for each new HTML5 and CSS3 feature covered. "Falling Back" sections show you how
to create solutions for older browsers, and "The Future" sections at the end of each chapter get
you excited about the possibilities when HTML5 and CSS3 reach widespread adoption. Get ready for
the future--it's here already.

Available in epub, mobi, and PDF direct from the publisher and in paperback from fine bookstores
worldwide.
