  • 28 HTML5 Features, Tips, and Techniques you Must Know

    Twice a month, we revisit some of our readers’ favorite posts from throughout the history of Nettuts+. This tutorial was first published in August, 2010. This industry moves fast — really fast! If you’re not careful, you’ll be left in its dust. So, if you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed with the coming changes/updates in HTML5, use this as a primer of the things you must know. 1. New Doctype Still using that pesky, impossible-to-memorize XHTML doctype? <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> If so, why? Switch to the new HTML5 doctype. You’ll live longer — as Douglas Quaid might say. <!DOCTYPE html> In fact, did you know that it truthfully isn’t even really necessary for HTML5? However, it’s used for current, and older browsers that require a specified doctype. Browsers that do not understand this doctype will simply render the contained markup in standards mode. So, without worry, feel free to throw caution to the wind, and embrace the new HTML5 doctype. 2. The Figure Element Consider the following mark-up for an image: <img src="path/to/image" alt="About image" /> <p>Image of Mars. </p> There unfortunately isn’t any easy or semantic way to associate the caption, wrapped in a paragraph tag, with the image element itself. HTML5 rectifies this, with the introduction of the <figure> element. When combined with the <figcaption> element, we can now semantically associate captions with their image counterparts. <figure> <img src="path/to/image" alt="About image" /> <figcaption> <p>This is an image of something interesting. </p> </figcaption> </figure> 3. <small> Redefined Not long ago, I utilized the <small> element to create subheadings that are closely related to the logo. It’s a useful presentational element; however, now, that would be an incorrect usage. The small element has been redefined, more appropriately, to refer to small print. Imagine a copyright statement in the footer of your site; according to the new HTML5 definition of this element; the <small> would be the correct wrapper for this information. The small element now refers to “small print.” 4. No More Types for Scripts and Links You possibly still add the type attribute to your link and script tags. <link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/stylesheet.css" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/script.js"></script> This is no longer necessary. It’s implied that both of these tags refer to stylesheets and scripts, respectively. As such, we can remove the type attribute all together. <link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/stylesheet.css" /> <script src="path/to/script.js"></script> 5. To Quote or Not to Quote. …That is the question. Remember, HTML5 is not XHTML. You don’t have to wrap your attributes in quotation marks if you don’t want to you. You don’t have to close your elements. With that said, there’s nothing wrong with doing so, if it makes you feel more comfortable. I find that this is true for myself. <p class=myClass id=someId> Start the reactor. Make up your own mind on this one. If you prefer a more structured document, by all means, stick with the quotes. 6. Make your Content Editable The new browsers have a nifty new attribute that can be applied to elements, called contenteditable. As the name implies, this allows the user to edit any of the text contained within the element, including its children. There are a variety of uses ...

  • How to Submit a Form with Control + Enter

    You’ve probably seen it on Twitter, Google+, or Facebook. You’ve got a text box, where you write your status/message and then click a button to submit it. But, if you’re lazy like me, you don’t like to switch to the mouse to click the button. These services help us out by allowing us to press control + enter to submit. Let’s recreate this scenario for our own projects. Prefer Video? Of course, the reason we can’t submit on just enter is because we’ll be using a textarea, so that the user can include line breaks. Normally, the browser will just ignore the control key and add another line break when we hit control + enter, but we’ll intercept this and perform our magic. Step 1: The Template We’re not here to talk about HTML and CSS so much, so here’s the “template” we start with: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8" /> <title>Text Box Enter</title> <style> body { font: 16px/1.5 helvetica-neue, helvetica, arial, san-serif; } textarea { border: 1px solid #ccc; display:block; width: 250px; height: 100px; } p { border: 1px solid #ccc; background: #ececec; padding: 10px; margin: 10px 0; width: 230px; } button { border: 1px solid #ccc; background: #ececec; -webkit-border-radius: 3px; padding: 5px 20px; margin-top:10px; } </style> </head> <body> </body> </html> Step 2: The HTML We need a few element to work with here, so let’s add them: <textarea id="msg"></textarea> <button type="submit">Post</button> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script> </script> I’m really simplifying this here: we only have a textarea and a button. If this were the real deal, we would want an official form here, that would work and submit your message without JavaScript. We’re also including jQuery and an empty script tag that we will take advantage of next. Step 3: The JavaScript We’re going to make this as a jQuery plugin that we’ll call ctrlEnter. Here’s what we start with: $.fn.ctrlEnter = function (btns, fn) { var thiz = $(this); btns = $(btns); }; We’re taking two parameters. We will call this plugin function on the textarea, so we already have that element. The first parameter is a string of one or more selectors that will be passed to jQuery. These are elements that must have the same functionality when clicked. The second parameter is the function that will be executed when control + enter is pressed. Then, we’re creating variables: the jQueryified textarea and the jQueryified btns. function performAction (e) { fn.call(thiz, e); } Next, we create a function that wraps the function we passed in. We do this so that we can make sure the function is called with the textarea element as this within the function. We’re also passing it the event object from the event. thiz.bind("keydown", function (e) { if (e.keyCode === 13 && e.ctrlKey) { performAction(e); e.preventDefault(); } }); btns.bind("click", performAction); Next, we have the actual event handlers. The first wires a function to the keydown event on the textarea element. e.keyCode === 13 means the enter key is being pressed. If e.ctrlKey is true, that means the user was pressing the control key when the...

  • What Does Professional Mean?

    So, what does professional mean? I decided to write this article a little after the release of Apple's Final Cut Pro X and the fallout from that. On the day of it's release, there were numerous people on Twitter and various blogs crying foul of Apple saying the app didn't have some professional features, and it couldn't be used for professional use. This got me thinking of what features of an app make it professional and, in general, what does it mean to be professional?Sponsored by Advertise on Fuel Brand Network.

  • Where Did Apple Go Wrong?

    Back in June, in the Letter From the Editor column, I wrote "Final Cut X: Commercial Success or Critical Failure?" As it turns out, I couldn't have picked my words any more correctly for two reasons: not only does the software not act like the "Pro" software that it has been built up to, but by all accounts this version of Final Cut seems like a commercial failure.Sponsored by Advertise on Fuel Brand Network.
