Stunning. Simple, elegant, clean.
I like it. How easy, though, is it to edit in Freeway? So many templates are fabulous to look at but a complete PITA to edit if you want to add or remove anything to the basic structure.

Are you using any specific HTML 5 elements like rather than
Not sure if Freeway or any actions can do that apart from inserting your own code can it?

Exactly. Without the reasoning and knowledge as to why things are done in a certain way the whole template can crumble to dust rapidly. Typically why a CMS is incorporated in the real world for ordinary users.

My HTML5 Element Action inserts that link, and also allows you to convert an HTML element into most of the “new” elements. you are correct about what it does, though. It makes older browsers (mostly IE) understand how to display those new elements, and makes them print correctly, too.

Didn’t know about this. Just looking at Ernie’s code and could not spot any HTML5 elements.
Ernie did you plan to mark the code sections up using HTML5 divisions (elements)?

Hi David,
You’re right – I am using Walter’s spiffy new HTML5 Action… you are also
correct in reasoning my div naming conventions. However, I have not yet
applied the action to create those specific elements… as doing so creates
some difficulties when combined with other actions. I am creating
alternative strategies.

To all,
I am finding this a lot harder than it looks. The first seemingly
impossible task is how to simplify the use of the file – I cannot imagine
supporting users who are not at any level of learning page-code. IMO, it is
an un-winnable strategy. Right now I am aiming to keep it uncomplicated as
possible – which conforms to my own personal aesthetic – and think of it as
a teaching tool. So I am contemplating ways to release the Freeway Pro file
for evaluation as well.
Second, I am still feeling unclear about HTML5 implementation –
specifically, what are the value of HTML5 container structures as opposed
to divs? Is it a semantic advantage? What then are the roles of div
containers? I have not found much clarification on that concept or what the
intended use of some of these structures are.
All of this is giving me great ideas, like building responsiveness into
this or resurrecting some of my past layouts like Son of Satin.

Nice clean template - I like the linen background texture. Very interested to see how the html5 works out.

Thanks Todd, that’s very helpful.
You guys wanna look at this and tell me if this gal has the structure
right? It makes sense to me, but I want to be sure it represents a good
practical interpretation of how html5 should look.

How 'bout an example of the humble and oft forgotten definition list?

Hi all,
am not sure if this is a list discussing look and design of a template or a HTML5 Elements and its usage one.
So if Template:
Nice and well done, however I prefer colors :-). Templates should be seen as an “it is as it is”. If it doesn’t match my requirements, so there is nothing to fiddle in, it is simply the wrong template.
If HTML5:
Basically I’m dumb 'cause I haven’t yet understood the entire theme but there is something that makes me wonder if we really can use HTML5 elements in Freeway - or better said in the expected and dedicated way. So let’s have a look into my dangerous superficial knowledge:
Up to my definition, a “HTML5 page” contains divs with ids and(or) classes.
No. The appearance of those divs are steered by the style-sheet(s). Not one single line needs to be in the before end head tag or within the open/close div-tag - all is part of external resources.
A content and style(s) containing element.
Structuring divs in a semantic way. So prefixing divs in order to declare what is to be expected giving them a direct (eg. header) or global (eg. section) meaning. The purpose is an easier way to SEO a webpage.
Good point. Inline styles probably? But this can be solved by externalizing them. That’s what I thought and tried.
But unfortunately, Walter’s action is stopping the externalizing-tools (such as Tim’s externalize or Max’s advanced inline style (re)mover) for whatever reason to do their jobs.
It may be the fact, that an HTML5 attribute is not dedicated for “styling” so there is nothing for externalize (that’s the job of the divs) - but as I said in the entry:
Dangerous Superficial Knowledge.
Cheers

HTML5 elements can be targeted for styling. The problem I’ve found with
doing that is you will lose the styling info in non-HTML5-ready browsers
because they will simply ignore those elements and by extension any
styling associated with them. That’s assuming you’re not using js to
force those browsers to understand HTML5 elements in which case it might
work fine.

Nice. Guess it’s easy enough to overlay a color here and there.
