Advance Praise for Head First HTML5 Programming
“HTML5 is the “future of the web”. How many times have you heard that? If you really want to understand the family of technologies that make up HTML5, read this book! Head First HTML5 Programming is the definitive book on HTML5 for everyone from beginners to experienced developers.”

“This book is a rollicking ride through the wild new territory of HTML5, where we are all bound to be battling scorpions for years.

Like all Head First books, it replaces dry recitation with lively, memorable, fact-laden bursts of information.

—Ken Arnold, Design/Build Hub, Peak Impact, Inc.

—Michael S. Scherotter, Principal Architect Evangelist, Microsoft Corporation
