HTML 5 – The Definitive Course 20th & 21st September 2010

We know what you need.

Come and learn everything you need to know to become production-ready for HTML5!

Obviously you've heard of the revolutionary new HTML 5 and have been following the browser wars over video formats with interest, anticipation and possibly rising horror. Did you also know that there is so much more to HTML 5 than the new video tag? Many new HTML markup tags and semantic rules, many new attributes, a whole new form validation system and much much more.

You could spend weeks googling it all - or you could spend 2 fun, exciting, hands-on workshop days learning all about it instead, while mixing with other industry professionals.

Most browsers are ready and even Internet Explorer is starting to catch up, so come and join us and learn everything you need to know to be production-ready for HTML5.

What can you expect?

Over the course of two days, we'll be looking at:

* the state of HTML 5 in today's browsers and the implication for you as a web designer and developer
* new tags and how to use them to mark up your HTML 5 pages
* best practice recommendations for semantic HTML 5 markup
* new form input types introduced in HTML 5
* new client-side form validation features in HTML 5
* the new video tag and how it impacts on your work, how to implement it, write Javascript code against it and integrate it into a production setup
* the new audio tag - what it does and how to work with it
