Jun 04 21:37:25 <kfish> how can i tell (from a web app) if the user agent supports html5?
Jun 04 21:37:45 <annevk> you can't
Jun 04 21:37:48 <zcorpan> kfish: for what purpose?
Jun 04 21:37:56 <annevk> "supporting html5" is kind of broad too

Jun 04 21:38:07 <hsivonen> kfish: you should check for the features you need
Jun 04 21:38:15 <kfish> sure ... i want to offer an html5 page, with <video>, if the browser supports that
Jun 04 21:38:33 <zcorpan> then just place the fallback inside the <video> element
Jun 04 21:38:39 <annevk> var v = document.createElement("video"); if (v.play) { // prolly some support }
Jun 04 21:39:06 <annevk> zcorpan, "create an element" should do the namespace stuff

Jun 04 21:39:22 <zcorpan> annevk: ok
Jun 04 21:39:24 <annevk> zcorpan, with a similar algorithm that's already in the XML spec
Jun 04 21:39:32 <annevk> zcorpan, I've yet to implement it though
Jun 04 21:39:36 <kfish> zcorpan, thanks
Jun 04 21:40:13 <kfish> annevk, thanks
Jun 04 21:41:09 <annevk> basically just going up the open elements array and going through the attributes for xmlns: and xmlns= magic
