oh...i can't watch this because html5 doesn't recognize my browser...how ironic...ughughugh

I'm using the updated firefox why won't it work!!

@booboowilson10101 That is why I called off this tutorial. HTML5 just doesn't work right on most of the browsers. If everyone online would just decide to use Google Chrome the world would be great. But, then we have all of the mobile browsers Errrrggg!

I'm thinking that blocking js would make modernizr not work. I will have to test that.

[derekbanas]

@trailingdot You're right, but the percentage of people that block JS is extremely small. Only 18% use IE as well. I'm starting to believe we shouldn't continue to mess up our sites because of less than 20% of potential users. This 20% has been shown to not trust online transactions at all from anyone who is not a major retailer as well. They also never go to small sites and blogs

In the beginning, it sounded like you were saying the doctype declaration was not compatible in prior versions of IE. To set the record straight, the the shorthand doctype declaration works in IE6+, whereas the HTML5 elements (like canvas, section, and article) only work in IE9+.

[derekbanas]

@hidoisan Sorry about that. I meant to say canvas isn't compatible with IE versions prior to 9

I am wondering how all this will display in a browser like elinks....

@derekbanas I left IE a long time ago. I'm not anti microsoft, but there are much better open source options out there. I use Firefox primarily, and Chrome when I'm in a hurry, lol.
