DOCTYPE is much longer as HTML4 is based on SGML-based.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN”

 DOCTYPE is required to enable standards mode for HTML documents.<!DOCTYPE html>

Audio and Video are not part of HTML4 specification.

Audio and Videos are integral part of HTML5 specifications e.g. <audio> and<video> tags.

JS GeoLocation API in HTML5 helps identify location of user browsing any website (provided user allows it)

Browser cache can be used as temporary storage.

 Application Cache, Web SQL database and Web storage is available as client side storage. Accessible using JavaScript interface in HTML5 compliant browsers.

Full duplex communication channels can be established with Server using Web Sockets. Accessible using JavaScript interface in HTML5 compliant browsers.

Allows JavaScript to run in background. This is possible due to JS Web worker API in HTML5.

Java EE & HTML5 HOL – Java One India 2013

 

Delivered Java EE & HTML5 Hands on Lab (HOL) using NetBeans IDE during Java One India 2013 on 8th May 2013 with Ashwin Rao, Group Product Manager, Oracle at HICC, Hyderabad for 2 hrs.

Here we covered how easily one can create a Java EE application with web service & HTML5 application which accesses the data from Java EE application and performs others operations without any problem and without writing much code.

It was an awesome experience to work with Ashwin Rao, Group Product Manager, Oracle. Those 2 hrs are the most memorable moments for me, I am ready to volunteer for next year too, hope they count me in.
