Intro ------------------------------
You need modern browser to see html5 at work. html5 is supported by IE9 (need Windows 7), Firefox 3.5+, Opera, Google Chrome, Safari
HTML5 allows to play video and audio (using <video> and <audio> tags), to draw and create animations (using <canvas> tag), thus effectively eliminating the need in flash/actionscript/flex programming. Here is a list of some new features:

| canvas text | drawing/formatting text on a canvas |
| html5 audio | play audio |
| html5 video | play video |
| rgba() | define colours in CSS3 using an Alpha channel (opacity/transparency), for example: background-color: rgba(255,0,0,1); |
| hsla() | similar to rgba(), but different way to specify colors (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) |
| border-image | allows to create beautiful borders, buttons |
| border-radius | rounded corners |
| box-shadow | |
