Following on from this my javascript issue had something to do with a missing closing /script. Its a problem for those of us who xhtml’ed and got used to doing all in the the open bracket and close bracket with a src file.
Makes the file much smaller and easy to maintain down the line – phew.
Of note and is useful is the O’reilly [no not of rupert murdoch fame] authors attempt at doing a book. The open source /cc licensed website diveintohtml5.org looks poor but info of value is contained in it.
Geolocation does work but ive issues with it as to being useful and consistent in some supported browsers. Least it works I did some map stuff with the defunct Robert Soloway fun site we ran on google maps so it will come back.
Again it is still early days for html5 – it seems odd at times with the amount of javascript to do stuff [not a problem] and some of the ideas take the new email form element, which it appears will not require javascript to look for an @ and stuff.
So getting there.
Offline storage is going to a be a bitch from what i gather since there is no common means to reference it. Microsoft will no doubt fuck that up with a special method just for them.
