So the new tags don`t add any new attributes in comparison to a normal span/div?<br><div class="gmail_quote"><br>regards,<br><br>Martin<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Dec 11, 2009 at 11:41 PM, Jim Driscoll <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Jim.Driscoll@sun.com" target="_blank">Jim.Driscoll@sun.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">HTML5 has a number of new semantically meaningful tags.<br>
<br>
See here for a painless introduction:<br>

<br>
Block tags include:<br>
<br>
article<br>
aside<br>
footer<br>
header<br>
nav<br>
section<br>
<br>
Inline tags include:<br>
<br>
details<br>
figure<br>
mark<br>
time<br>
<br>
Then, there's the canvas, audio and video tags.<br>
<br>
We can actually support many of these tags with only a minor change in to the panelGroup tag.<br>
<br>
In addition to the currently allowed "inline" and "block", I would add the following:<br>
<br>
span<br>
div<br>
article<br>
aside<br>
footer<br>
header<br>
nav<br>
section<br>
figure<br>
mark<br>
<br>
details and time deserve their own tags, I think, as do canvas, video and audio, and are not part of this proposal.<br>
<br>
We may wish to consider deprecating inline and block. We've never deprecated attribute values before, but hey, first time for everything.<br>
<br>
Note that for backward compatibility with particularly lame (IE) browsers, a shiv needs to be included in the page, as found here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://code.google.com/p/html5shiv/" target="_blank">http://code.google.com/p/html5shiv/</a><br>
<br>
Whether this would be included automatically, should, I think, be implementation specific.<br>
<br>
Please comment on this proposal, and I'll add it to the spec issue tracker after we have consensus.<br><font color="#888888">

P.S. Molly's HTML 5 talk at Rich Web was a good one - can you tell?<br>
