(Some) HTML5 already works in Opera9 (Merlin)
Monday, 9. July 2007, 15:01:32
Besides video delivered in an experimental Opera build some more HTML5 elements are already supported in Opera9 Merlin: There is support for Canvas and Web Forms 2.0 which were added with Opera 9.0 Technology Preview 1 and audio. Since that time this seems to go pretty unnoticed in public. My attention was raised by a presentation of Anne van Kesteren for reboot 9.0 about HTML5.
This article doesn't provide deep research nor many details. I provide a whole bunch of links towards this topic. And you may find the examples for Web Forms 2.0 as impressive as I did.
What for?
What is it useful for if no other browser supports the same? FataL delivers one possible answer: for Opera Widgets!
