Daniel0 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Yeah, I'm looking forward to HTML5. Just a shame we'll have to wait a couple of millennia until Internet Explorer will support it properly.

nrg_alpha Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Yeah, I'm looking forward to HTML5. Just a shame we'll have to wait a couple of millennia until Internet Explorer will support it properly. Microsoft's browser market shares are going down (thankfully).. With much more w3c compliant browsers like FireFox, Chrome and Safari making inroads into the erosion of IE, by the time html 5 is mainstream, IE will have fallen much more than it current (just under 70%) browser shares if we're lucky. Couple this with the possibility of Chome coming pre-installed on new PCs sometime in 09 might help in futher bringing down IE's percentage.

ILMV Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Chrome is genius, it renders our internal site so much faster than FF3, mainly due to the speed of JavaScript, but isnt the beta of FF meant to be as quick as Chrome with handling JavaScript? IE8 is meant to support standards? ... for about 5 minutes, then it will be outdated, again..

Daniel0 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 TraceMonkey is as fast, if not a tiny bit faster, than V8. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/139756-html5/#findComment-732471 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg_alpha Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 TraceMonkey is as fast, if not a tiny bit faster, than V8. The good news that can come out of this is a 'javascript engine war' that fuels both to keep trying to out do the other. This is obviously better for us users as performance (at least with regards to javascript) is getting better. The bad news however is that once 2011 arrives Google may no longer be Mozilla's biggest revenue generator as thier search advertising deal will expire. This isn't to say that Firefox will fall off the face of the earth.. but it does add questions with regards to where Mozilla will turn to next for the majority of its funding (assuming Google does not renew, which wouldn't surprise me if they didn't).
