HTML5 forms input datalist

    "The list attribute / datalist element of HTML5 forms is pretty cool. As you type in a text input, it shows you a dropdown menu of choices you can pick from. Or you can type in whatever you want. The list attribute alone doesn't lock you into any specific value. In that way, it's a bit like a group of radio buttons with an "other" type-in option."

section html5 html element markup outline document structure

  • A general rule is that the section element is appropriate only if the element’s contents would be listed explicitly in the document’s outline.
  • The theme of each section should be identified, typically by including a heading (h1-h6 element) as a child of the section element.
  • Don’t use it just as hook for styling or scripting; that’s a div
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Don’t use it unless there is naturally a heading at the start of the section
  • As blogposts and comments are often syndicated (by being pulled into other blogs or being linked via twitter, reddit etc) they should be articles.

      Use rather than for blog post and for comment content types.

  • Previous/next buttons (or pagination) I would say yes to this because it is important to the overall structure and hierarchy of the blog/site
  • Search form For me, a definite yes, but it is not mentioned in the spec. A search form is hugely important to the navigation of a site, particularly large sites which rely almost solely on their search engine.
  • Breadcrumbs Again, I would say yes to this as well. Although breadcrumbs are not always necessary and can be used when not applicable, on large sites a breadcrumb trail can be an important navigation aid.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • <menu> is to be used for a list of commands and is an interactive element and more likely to be used exclusively in Web Applications.
  • The nav element represents a section of a page that links to other pages or to parts within the page: a section with navigation links.
  • Table of Contents I would say definitely yes to that – it is primary navigation for that particularly content

    Breadcrumbs Again, I would say yes to this as well. Although breadcrumbs are not always necessary and can be used when not applicable, on large sites a breadcrumb trail can be an important navigation aid.

html css code guide HTML5

shared by Vernon Fowler on 04 Sep 20 - No Cached
  • Compared to <link>s, @import is slower, adds extra page requests, and can cause other unforeseen problems. Avoid them and instead opt for an alternate approach
  • Compile your CSS with a preprocessor like Sass or Less into a single file
  • Place media queries as close to their relevant rule sets whenever possible.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Limit shorthand declaration usage to instances where you must explicitly set all available values.
  • Avoid unnecessary nesting. Just because you can nest, doesn't mean you always should. Consider nesting only if you must scope styles to a parent and if there are multiple elements to be nested.
  • For a complete list of properties and their order, please see
