So, with HTML5 giving us local SQL databases on the client side, if you want to write a select or insert, you no longer have the ability to sanitize third party input by saying $buddski = mysql_real_escape_string($tuddski) because the PHP parser and MySQL bridge are far away. It's a whole new world of SQLite where you compose your querie...
Is it possible to play a shoutcast/icecast stream using HTML5? If so, how should I implement it? ...
Hi, I want to check a collision between two Sprites in HTML5 canvas. So for the sake of the discussion, let's assume that both sprites are IMG objects and a collision means that the alpha channel is not 0. Now both of these sprites can have a rotation around the object's center but no other transformation in case this makes this any e...
http://gizmodo.com/5523721/microsoft-office-on-windows-phone-7-looks-fantastic I was wondering if it was possible to obtain an effect similar to the windows 7 mobile examples above without using Flash. I would like to have content swivel in along the z-axis. Thanks! ...
The standard way to deal with situations where the browser does not support the HTML5 <canvas> tag is to embed some fallback content, usually a polite version (and sometimes a less polite version) of <canvas>Your browser sucks</canvas> But the rest of the page remains the same, which may be inappropriate or misleading. I'd like some w...
I did some research on Google but I couldn't find any HTML5 browser for Windows Mobile 6. The main resource I'm looking for in HTML5 is WebDatabase and/or localStorage. With a little research I found Iris (http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-iris-browser.html), a Webkit based browser with some HTML5 features, but localStorage a...
I've got a table that you can edit, and I've got a simple code saving that list when you're done with editing it. (the tables have the contenteditable on) The problem I've stumbled upon is that if I double click on enter, the table gets divided into two separate tables with the same ID. This causes the code I'm using to set the localSt...
Whats faster for including scripts, using CDN (Google) or store them locally in website root? ...
HTML5's localStorage databases are usually size-limited — standard sizes are 5 or 10 MB per domain. Can these limits be circumvented by subdomains (e.g. example.com, hack1.example.com and hack2.example.com all have their own 5 MB databases)? And is there anything in the standard that specifies whether parent domains can access their chil...
To a developer who is about to delve into learning Silverlight would you recommend that its worth the effort OR would you say its better to focus on HTML5? I am asking purely from a marketability perspective ...
Apple is always in the news these days with "i" this and "i" that. One of the biggest beefs people have with Apple is the lack of Flash support. Last year I held the same belief, Apple's choice to exclude Flash support just seemed senseless. HTML 5 seems to have changed this though. One of the most popular users of Flash is YouTube, ...

I have two videos, and I want to loop the first video until the user clicks the mouse, at which point I want to switch to playing the second video. Does anyone know what the best way to do this would be? Edit: Sorry, to clarify, I would prefer to use HTML 5 (assuming this is possible). I am trying to have the two videos swapped out seam...
So, I'm creating a standard user-data collection form that will be used by standard web browsers, as well as the iPhone and iPad. The app will allow users to create new records, as well as edit and delete existing records. I've gotten the gist of using html5's 'localstorage' to create a client-side data source and am looking for directi...
I run a website that has as part of it about 700 reference videos (And no, it's not porn -- get your mind out of the gutter :-) ). The videos are currently in FLV format. We use the JWPlayer to render those videos. IIS6 hosted. Everything works just fine. As I understand it, H.264 (not FLV and likely not OGG) is the emerging prefer...
We're just getting started with html5 video, and cannot seem to get .ogg files to play in Firefox, any tips?

Hi all, First try the test case please: http://lemon-factory.net/test/font-face-and-canvas.html I'm not good at English, so I made the test case to be self-explanatory. On the first click to the DRAW button, it will not draw text, or will draw with an incorrect typeface instead of the specified "PressStart", according to your browser....
I'd like to be able to specify an SQLite database as a resource in the CACHE section of a manifest file. This would allow the script on the page to use the database in offline mode. I cannot find anything in the HTML5 spec that says this cannot be done, but I haven't had any success in getting it working either. Is it possible? ...
