HTML5 brand

HTML5 is: markup, JavaScript, CSS, SVG, jQuery & your dinner.

HTML5 is: markup, Lie. Don'CSS, JavaScript, t be stoop id SVG, jQuery & , but... your dinner.

HTML5 is anything & everything to mere mortal beings.

Custom player style

function toggle() { if (video.paused) { video.play(); this.innerHTML = 'Pause'; } else { video.pause(); this.innerHTML = 'Play'; } } var play = document.getElementById('play'); play.onclick = toggle;

// get & set video.currentTime // half speed video.playbackRate = 0.5 // actual loaded video video.currentSrc // etc

video.ontimeupdate = function () { updatePlayhead(this.currentTime); };

Fullscreen?

Warning! User agents should not provide a public API to cause videos to be shown full-screen. A script, combined with a carefully crafted video ﬁle, could trick the user into thinking a system-modal dialog had been shown, and prompt the user for a password. There is also the danger of "mere" annoyance, with pages launching full- screen videos when links are clicked or pages navigated. Instead, user-agent speciﬁc interface features may be provided to easily allow the user to obtain a full-screen playback mode.

Canvas Cooler than a fake Han Solo.

First consider SVG: Standard Vertical Graphing

First consider SVG: Standard Vertical Lie. Graphing

First consider SVG: Standard a lie. Not Vertical Lie. Graphing

SVG: Vector based, good for simple and interactive Canvas: Pixel based, good for pixel manipulation & high animation Check out raphaeljs.com

Mix & match to the technology's strength

pixel pushing

http://mugtug.com/darkroom

var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d'); ctx.getImageData(0,0,w,h)

ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h); 0 1 2 3 i = 0 r g b a i = 1 r g b a i... r g b a

pixels.data[i * 4 + 0]; 0 1 2 3 i = 0 r g b a i = 1 r g b a i... r g b a

var px = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h), l = px.data.length, i; for (i = 0; i < l; i += 4) { }

var px = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h), l = px.data.length, i; for (i = 0; i < l; i += 4) { This says loop over each pixel }

var px = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h), l = px.data.length, i; for (i = 0; i < l; i += 4) { px.data[i+0] = 255 - px.data[i+0]; }

var px = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h), l = px.data.length, i; for (i = 0; i < l; i += 4) { px.data[i+0] = 255 - px.data[i+0]; px.data[i+1] = 255 - px.data[i+1]; }

var px = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h), l = px.data.length, i; for (i = 0; i < l; i += 4) { px.data[i+0] = 255 - px.data[i+0]; px.data[i+1] = 255 - px.data[i+1]; px.data[i+2] = 255 - px.data[i+2]; }

var px = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h), l = px.data.length, i; for (i = 0; i < l; i += 4) { px.data[i+0] = 255 - px.data[i+0]; px.data[i+1] = 255 - px.data[i+1]; px.data[i+2] = 255 - px.data[i+2]; // don't need to do the alphachannel }

var px = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, w, h), l = px.data.length, i; for (i = 0; i < l; i += 4) { px.data[i+0] = 255 - px.data[i+0]; px.data[i+1] = 255 - px.data[i+1]; px.data[i+2] = 255 - px.data[i+2]; // don't need to do the alphachannel } ctx.putImageData(px, 0, 0);

You can do that in SVG, but you can't do this:

Storage

Cookies suck. (for most situations)

The code for cookies is painful: so we google it.

"Session" cookies leak across "sessions".

Non-session cookies require "special" date format

Deleting cookies, doesn't delete, but sets it in the past.

Fuck cookies.

Sexy Web Storage FTW

Key/value pair

One API setItem(key, value)

One API setItem(key, value) string* getItem(key)

One API setItem(key, value) string* getItem(key) removeItem(key)

One API setItem(key, value) string* getItem(key) removeItem(key) string key(index)

One API setItem(key, value) string* getItem(key) removeItem(key) string key(index) clear()

One API setItem(key, value) string* getItem(key) removeItem(key) string key(index) clear() .length

Two instances localStorage sessionStorage

localStorage • Persists • Applied to document origin, i.e. scheme/host/port tuple • No expiry

sessionStorage • Lasts whilst on the document origin • Doesn't leak • Exactly the same API as localStorage

var ss = sessionStorage; ss.setItem('version', 12); ss.getItem('version');

rnin g! Wa Values are strings

rnin g! Wa Values are strings Work around: JSON (and http://www.json.org/json2.js)

var ss = sessionStorage, user = { screen_name : ‘rem’, rating : 11 }; ss.setItem(‘user’, JSON.stringify(user)); var obj = JSON.parse(ss.getItem(‘user’)); alert(obj.screen_name);

Alternatives

IndexedDB

Geolocation

navigator.geolocation

getCurrentPosition watchPosition clearPosition

var geo = navigator.geolocation; geo.getCurrentPosition(function(data){ map(data.coords.latitude, data.coords.longitude); });

Check your accuracy

http://j.mp/geoshim if (!navigator.geolocation) { navigator.geolocation = (function (window) { function getCurrentPosition(callback) { // source: http://www.maxmind.com/app/javascript_city var geourl = 'http://j.maxmind.com/app/geoip.js_' + Math.random(), iframe = document.createElement('iframe'), doc, win; iframe.style.display = 'none'; window.document.body.appendChild(iframe); doc = iframe.contentDocument || iframe.contentWindow.document; win = iframe.contentWindow; // once the script has loaded, it triggers an onload event iframe.onload = function () { // assign all the captured values across to our geo object var geo = { coords: { latitude: win.geoip_latitude(), longitude: win.geoip_longitude() // other values are supported, i.e. accuracy, speed, heading, etc }, timestamp: (new Date()).getTime()

Sockets

Move over comet.

Low latency. Direct connection. Simple API.

var url = 'ws://apps.leftlogic.com:8000/', conn = new WebSocket(url); conn.onmessage = function (event) { console.log(JSON.parse(event.data)); }; conn.send('hello world');

Using a Manifest <!DOCTYPE html> <html manifest="my.manifest"> <body>  </body> </html>

my.manifest CACHE MANIFEST app.html css/style.css js/app.js #version 13

The Manifest 1. Serve as text/manifest, by adding to mime.types: text/cache-manifest manifest

t ip Firefox caching <IfModule mod_expires.c> ExpiresActive on ExpiresByType text/cache-manifest ↪ “access plus 0 seconds” </IfModule>

The Manifest 2. First line must be: CACHE MANIFEST

The Manifest 3. Including page is implicitly included in the cache.

The Manifest 4. Include some versioning to cache bust your manifest # version 16

The Manifest 5. Two futher namespaces: NETWORK & FALLBACK FALLBACK: / offline.html

CACHE MANIFEST CACHE: app.js app.css index.html NETWORK: /live/* FALLBACK: * offline.html

CACHE MANIFEST CACHE: app.js Served from cache app.css index.html NETWORK: /live/* FALLBACK: * offline.html

CACHE MANIFEST CACHE: app.js app.css index.html Requests to http://mysite.com/live/x NETWORK: /live/* must go via the web FALLBACK: * offline.html

CACHE MANIFEST CACHE: app.js app.css Requests for files not index.html found in the cache, NETWORK: are directed to /live/* offline.html (when FALLBACK: offline). / offline.html
