Welcome to the HTML5 Developers website.

The purpose of this network is to provide a platform discussing issues that are relevant to HTML5.  Although the idea is to have industry professionals converse with one another, we will also allow novice website developers and technology enthusiasts to join as members.  In all honesty, it would be too difficult for us to weed out the non tech savy.  Therefore, all are welcome (actually, most people are welcome, please see our terms and conditions)

If you are not yet familiar, HTML5 is a language for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web, a core technology of the Internet. It is the fifth revision of the HTML standard and appears to continuously be under development. Its core aim is to improve the language with support for the latest multimedia while keeping it easily readable by humans and consistently understood by computers and devices such as web browsers, parsers, mobile devices, etc.

If you have knowledge of HTML5, we greatly appreciate your thoughts on the subject.  As you help answer members questions, you are welcome to advise regarding pay services that you possibly provide.  Potentially, you can develop a freelance or consulting opportunity.

Canvas swap of several images depending on keyboard input

Started by Philip März in Help Me Please May 16. 0 Replies

Hi all together,I'm developing a little canvas game for improving my work with the new canvas-element... All works perfectly fine, but today i got a problem, that I couldn't solve myself:As you see here:Code:
if (38 in keysDown) { // Player holding uphero.y -= hero.speed * modifier;}if (40 in keysDown) { // Player holding downhero.y += hero.speed * modifier;}if (37 in keysDown) { // Player holding lefthero.x -= hero.speed * modifier;}if (39 in keysDown) { // Player holding righthero.x += hero.speed * modifier;}
 I'm detecting the keyboard arrow buttons. Now I want to change my player image depending on what keys are active...My first idea was to rotate the whole grid in the canvas element, but that didn't work, because my algorhythms use the mouse-position relative to the canvas...My second idea is to define 8 images for all 8 directions and activate their drawing depending on the keys pressed...But this doesn't work... If I change the image.src = 'whatever.png' to 'whatever90.png' if…Continue

Need your opinion on what makes you develop HTML5 apps for mobile

Started by Dan Dodson in HTML5 for Mobile Devices Dec 21, 2011. 0 Replies

Hi All - I am working on a project for a client and wanted to better understand HTML5 developer's views on the following:What is your interest in developing HTML5 apps for a mobile device versus strictly web based.Is there key functionality that must be included (geolocation for example) for you to be interested in developing for mobile?If an App Store can provide discoverablility and a way to monetize your app, would you be willing to work through that process?  Would you give up 30% of the revenue for those benefits?What is your interest in working with a dev tool like PhoneGap or Appcelerator to wrap your code to look like a native app?What are the benefits/issues with using HTML5 for mobile devices?I know this is fairly new, but have always found that developers are willing to share their thoughts if you just ask...  so I'm asking the community. If you have thoughts on any of the above, I'd love to hear them.Thanks!DanContinue

Offline capabilities

Started by Nathan Coyne in Help Me Please Nov 3, 2011. 0 Replies

I am in the middle of making my HTML5 web app work offline. However on several of the pages they require data to be passed in the address bar so the next page can receive the data. anyways, the problem I have now is I can't type out in my cache file each possible address being cached. Is this even possible to do? or is there some fancy fix? I cached the page like this:editEmployee2.html but the page is pretty much empty unless it gets the address passed from editEmployee1 because it builds a table dynamically in javascript. what I need is something like this:editEmployee2.html?Employee_ID=172 I'm sure that's confusing but I hope it makes sense and hopefully somebody out there may have an idea or answer to this. Continue

webDB (Database Storage)

Started by Nathan Coyne in HTML5 Discussions Oct 19, 2011. 0 Replies

There are several database storage ways in HTML5. Browsers are mixed on there support, which makes development using this technology difficult. I have been using webDB which best fit my project, however it is not supported any longer by HTML5 standards. I'm wondering if I should consider switching to indexDB or if this could be pushed to get supported again? What is the constraints involved in webDB storage? The limitations with indexDB almost make it unusable. webDB just makes sense. If your not familiar with this here's some links: http://www.w3.org/TR/webdatabase/http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/webdatabase/todo/Continue

As per an article I read today on Techcrunch, "There will be one billion HTML5-capable phones sold in 2013, according to new research from Strategy Analytics.
