Firefox 3.5 - A Glimpse Into HTML 5

Firefox 3.5 - A Glimpse Into HTML 5 Posted August 11, 2009 @ 10:26pm by Phil

I got a chance to upgrade to Firefox version 3.5.2 a week or so ago, and with it the first glimpse of HTML 5 on a browser. I have been messing around with some of the features, and so far am pretty impressed. Some of the features are:

  • New <video> and <audio> tags for embedding video and audio.
  • New, faster, Javascript engine.
  • HTML 5 off line data storage for web applications.
  • Location-Aware Browsing

See the Firefox 3.5 for developers page for more details on the new features.

I also found a list of sites that show off some of the new features (source):
