HTML5

This page is a work in progress.

The proper style

It seems to be expected that pages have a header (with navigation), content, and a footer.

• UNC Asheville home page
• UNC Asheville New Media home page
• UNC Asheville faculty page
• nice CSCI course page

See the pages for this course for non-conforming examples.

HTML tags

Tags in HTML 4 did not reflect this larger structure. Some tags, such as CODE reflect semantic information, but many, such as KBD, do not. Header tags are the only ones that offer any hints of structure.

• HTML 4 tags
• Official HTML 4 Index of Elements
• Official HTML 5 overview
