Support for HTML5/CSS3 in IE9beta _ HTML/Xhtml _ webpage Creation

The IE9beta version has been released for a few days and I have tried it for the first time. However, due to time issues, this log has not been sent yet. Well, it has been busy recently, in fact, the main reason is that there is no large block of time, and the shard time is not very efficient ~~ So that the latest blog updates are relatively slow... Some people say that IE9 is the second revolution of Microsoft. I don't think this can be said at all. Since IE6, the update of IE has never been so thorough. It fully supports DOM level 2 and CSS2.1, simplified interface ...... Of course, we are most concerned about how IE9 supports HTML5 and CSS3 ~~

On Microsoft's ietestcenter website, we can see this chart:

When I saw this figure, I felt like a pear. I was wondering, is IE9 so cool? After carefully reading the instructions, it is clear that the test project here is only the entry submitted by Microsoft to W3C and is not complete. For example, in CSS3, only five technologies are included, instead of all CSS3 content-a strong BS, Microsoft, almost got down to him ......

In fact, it is very easy to understand the support of a browser for HTML5/CSS3. The Modernizr introduced in the previous article is a very good tool. I am a lazy here and access findmebyip directly, you can see that IE9beta supports them:

IE9 supports new CSS3 features:

It can be seen that IE9beta currently has weak support for the new feature of CSS3.

Support for CSS3 selector in IE9:

Finally, IE9 fully supports CSS selectors!

Support for HTML5 new features in IE9:

IE9beta's support for HTML5 new features is also incomplete, and audio and video support is very weak. Although the IE team said it would support WebM, it is not yet implemented (PS: in the test of HTML5test.com,IE9beta supports H.264 formatVideo ). In addition, support for SVG is one of Microsoft's benchmarks for promoting Internet Explorer 9. But how good is IE9's support for SVG? Let's take a look at Wang Dao! PS: IE6-IE8 does not support SVG, so related technology applications in IE to use Microsoft's own VML alternative.

Support for HTML5 forms in IE9:

I have always been most concerned about the support for HTML5 forms in IE9. If the official IE version still does not support HTML5 forms, this is definitely a failed browser.

In fact, we know that IE9 has made great progress, but some of its performance makes us afraid to hold too much hope for it. For example, hardware acceleration is a great function, which can make browser rendering faster, however, even if hardware acceleration is not used, chrome is already so fast. However, I cannot figure out why DirectX 9 + is required for hardware acceleration and windows 7. Compared with webGL acceleration of webkit, such a policy has no advantages, unless Microsoft can upgrade all xp users to Windows 7!

Well, a simple review, I hope IE can be released and updated in a better way, the coexistence of four versions of IE6-IE9 will make people crazy...
