Better Web Forms with HTML5 Forms(msdn.microsoft.com)

submitted by rcash(4149) 6 months, 23 days ago

In addition to text and the handful of existing types we’ve had for years, HTML5 adds 13 new values for the input type attribute, as well as a host of other attributes that will speed up your forms development. This series of articles take a look at how recent updates to Visual Studio 2010 and the Microsoft .NET Framework 4 enable HTML5 Forms and ASP.NET Web Forms play well together.

I like the Date field in IE 10 as compared to other browsers like Chrome or Opera. Maybe, we do not require the jQuery datepicker anymore.

With the new validation inbuilt into HTML5, how will ASP.NET validation controls look like. Probably, the code emitted by ASP.NET validation controls will be lot simpler if it is HTML5 compliant browser.

I wonder how long it will be before the other browsers add something similar.

I would imagine validation for lots of things will be easier in HTML5 with the added semantics that are available.

Things of this nature within HTML 5 make obvious the pattern of the industry in adopting the "convention over configuration" approach to re-solving the same problems. Thank goodness we've evolving!
