Using the HTML5 cache manifest to work offline

html5laboratory

After far too long procrastinating (actually I’ve been quite busy) I’ve finally posted a new experiment over on HTML5 Laboratory.

Focusing on the cache manifest file and how to set your application up to be available offline, I hope you find using the cache manifest file informative.

As usual, feel free to comment on the experiment itself, or leave a comment here.

html5 laboratory – the drag and drop API

html5 laboratory

I’ve just written a simple post over at HTML5 Laboratory all about the HTML5 drag and drop API.

It’s by no means a complete explanation of the contents of this API, but it does give a sample of what can be done with this useful new feature that’s part of HTML5.

Hit it!

html5 laboratory

HTML5 Laboratory was added to the wonderful <HTML5> Gallery site on the 2nd of March and the hit counter has gone through the roof!

According to Google Analytics, the statistics over the period of 2nd March to now are:

Visits: 1,035
Page views: 3,179
Unique views: 1,847

Not bad really. Amazing what a bit of exposure can do.

I’ve also had some good feedback and suggested “fixes” from users, which of course I have taken on board.

The next thing to do is to add comments to the various experiments so that people can have their say.
