    4.0 out of 5 stars online code now found, August 2, 2010

    This review is from: HTML5: Designing Rich Internet Applications (Visualizing the Web) (Paperback)
    See PS first

    The book would have gotten a higher review if I could find the code on-line. On page 100 it says to go to [...] to download the code. I can not find it there, indeed the page says it is "this is a future home page" and links to advertisements.
    This is not a reference book but a good overview of some of the features of HTML5 for the intermediate programmer - someone who has used HTML,CSS and Javascript but may not be familiar with code libraries such as YUI.

    PS Got new link to code The correct website is given by the author in the comment attached to this posting (the last time I posted a URL it was deleted)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Introduction Book for Anyone, August 4, 2010
    By Conrad Fuhrman (Plainfield, IL United States) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: HTML5: Designing Rich Internet Applications (Visualizing the Web) (Paperback)
    Plain and simple, this book provides the basics to get started with HTML5 and CSS3 in a proper format. Coming from a 10yr. veteran of HTML4 and XHTML, I found the book to be well suited for beginners and us experts alike. You need books like this to help leverage the very fundamentals that are often overshot by the rest of your community. How many times have you gone back to see proper usage for your tags or attributes? I like good clean books like this to keep me grounded. Personally I own a good collection of books by Matthew David as his writing style is point blank.

    to Brooklynite: Maybe you should get more in touch with your fellow developers and designers. Lorem Ipsum is standard practice for templating and concepting. If you didn't grasp that this book isn't a "tutorialfest" for copy and paste code, maybe you should look elsewhere instead of leaving a one star review. There are a few misprints and some code mishaps, but nothing that you couldn't intelligently work around.

    Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a great introduction and place to start with HTML5 and CSS3. Also the updated site for reference and code is [...]

    1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing., July 30, 2010
    By Brooklynite (Bklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
    Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
    This review is from: HTML5: Designing Rich Internet Applications (Visualizing the Web) (Paperback)
    So, this book. Well, I bought it thinking I might get a head start, since the rest of the HTML5 books out there are still not shipping. I should have waited.

    I have read probably 50 technical books on subjects ranging from PHP to Actionscript to Design Patterns to iPhone Development. I have never read a book that felt so pushed-to-market in my life. It appears that editors had no place in the process, because typos abound ("loose" instead of "lose" was a big red flag in chapter 1) -- it makes me wonder how many code errors there are. I haven't bothered to work through any of the code samples, because they all use Lorem Ipsum (as though the author doesn't feel the need to actually provide sample content -- he uses the sidebar explanation that "Lorem Ipsum...prevents your customers from reading the text and commenting on typos instead of looking at the overall visual presentation." Well Mr. David, it makes it nearly impossible to actually write any of the code you propose, given that most of us are not fluent in Latin). Which brings me to my next issue: there are no online code libraries, so any work you do will have to be dutifully typed by you. In Latin. :)

    Do yourselves a favor: wait until some of the more credible books arrive in stores and give this one a pass.
