HTML5 to Curl - RobertShiplett - 08-23-2011

Over at aule-browser.com the index.html page should now invite visitors to Curl with:

Your browser has Curl installed and enabled, so by clicking here you can view the Curl version of this page.

The index.html page was rewritten in tableless HTML5 (the original is now index-rdfa.html) which presented a number of cross-browser issues.

The Curl version at http://www.aule-browser.com/ab-home.html behaves quite well when the page is re-sized as you can see from the bottom bar with the twin reversed logos and the name "Logiquewerks" between them.

I was not able to test under IE6 or IE7 - if you have either and are able to check the resizing behavior, any feedback would be much appreciated.

The GroupBox on the left may invite simplification - it was intended to look at much as possible as those done in HTML4, XHTML and HTML5. All are linked from the index.html at the bottom of than page.

The Curl detection is based on the user having JavaScript enabled.

At present the pages were tested to detect Curl 7.0

The pages use Curl's easy to recall {en-dash) and {em-dash).

In the next iteration, repetitive code will be replaced by user text-formats, text-proc's or macros.
