 Language for describing 2D-graphics and graphical applications
in XML
 Vector Based
 “Retained Mode”

HTML – VIDEO SAMPLE
<video id="movie" width="320" height="240" preload controls>
<source src="pr6.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'>
<source src="pr6.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"' />
<source src="pr6.ogv" type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"' />
<object width="320" height="240" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="flowplayer-3.2.1.swf">
<param name="movie" value="flowplayer-3.2.1.swf" />
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="flashvars" value='config={"clip": {"url":
"http://wearehugh.com/dih5/pr6.mp4", "autoPlay":false,
"autoBuffering":true}}' />
<p>
Download video as
<a href="pr6.mp4">MP4</a>,
<a href="pr6.webm">WebM</a>, or
<a href="pr6.ogv">Ogg</a>.
</p>
</object>
</video>


VIDEO CODEC SUPPORT

Codecs/container IE Firefox Safari Chrome Opera iPhone Android
Theora+Vorbis+Ogg - 3.5+ *** 5.0+ 10.5+ - -
H.264+AAC+MP4 9.0+ - 3.0+ - - 3.0+ 2.0+
WebM 9.0+* 4.0+ *** 6.0+ 10.6+ - 2.3+**

* Internet Explorer 9 will only support WebM “when the user has installed a VP8 codec”
** Although Android 2.3 supports WebM, there are no hardware decoders yet, so battery life is a concern.
*** Safari will play anything that QuickTime can play, but QuickTime only comes with H.264/AAC/MP4 support
pre-installed.

Getting the most out of your web application

WEB APPS


WEB APPS - OFFLINE APPLICATIONS
 Online webpages
 Get downloaded
 Then rendered

 Offline Webpages
 Issue: Pages can’t be downloaded

 Solution
 Manifest file
 Manifest attribute on the html element of each offline enabled page
 Describes all necessary resources to use the application offline


 Offline application lifecycle
1. Visit the offline enabled application
2. Browser reads the manifest file
3. Downloads the resources described in the manifest file
4. Copies those files to a local cache
 Not the httpcache
5. When every thing is downloaded, the application is ready for
offline use
6. Resources automatically updated when changed

 The web application is now on- and offline available.
 Navigate to the url in both cases


 Cache Manifest file
 First line of every cache manifest file:
 CACHE MANIFEST
 The following is devided in 3 parts
 Explicit section
– CACHE
– All files in this list will be downloaded and cached
 Fallback section
– FALLBACK
– Page that will be displayed when you are trying to reach a page offline
that hasn’t been cached
 Outline whitelist section
– NETWORK
– Contains recoures that should never be cached (ex. Cgi scritps)


 Example

CACHE MANIFEST
FALLBACK:
/ /offline.html
NETWORK:
*


WEB APPS - WEB STORAGE
 Key/value pairs
 Key and value are string
 5 MB per domain
 Increase of quota is not allowed
 Durable data
 Persists data beyond Page refresh
 Data is never transmitted to the remote web server
 Storage event
 Occurs when the storage area changes
 Adding data
 Deleting data
 Changing data


WEB APPS - INDEXED DB
 Advanced key/value data management
 Stores large numbers of objects locally
 Asynchronous and synchronous APIs
 No structured query language (SQL)
 Methods are provide by the API
 Multiple database per domain
 Each database exists out of object stores
 Object stores
 Mechanism for storing data
 Indexes
 Searching in data
 Transactions
 Retrieving and manipulating data

contexts
 Web notifications
 API for displaying simple notifications


WEB APPS - PERFORMANCE
 Web workers
 Executing scripts in the background
 Doesn’t freezes the UI
 Takes advantage of multicores
 Allows thread-like operations with message-passing
 Page visibility API
 Determines if the page is visible
 Visibility changed event
 Purpose: saves battery life
 Request animation frame API
 API for create power efficient and smooth animations
 Determines how many frames per second an animation needs
 Depending on the display’s refresh rate
 Only when the page is visible


WEB APPS – TIMING INFORMATION
 Navigation timing
 Interface to access timing information related to navigation
 Resource timing
 Interface to access timing information related to HTML elements
 User timing
 Measures the performance of the applications
 Gets access to high precision timestamps
 Performance timeline
 Interface to access timing information related to navigation and
elements


WEB APPS – DEVICE INFORMATION
 Network information API
 Interface to access the underlying network information of the
device
 DeviceOrientation event specification
 Provides information about the physical orientation and motion of
the device
 Battery status event specification
 Provides information about the battery status of the hosting
device
 Touch event specification
 A set low level event to handle touch events
 Single as multi touch
 Also addresses pen-tablet devices


WEB APPS
 Selector API
 Methodes for retrieving elements from the DOM
 Clipboard API
 Defines clipboard operations
 Copy, cut, paste
 Contacts API
 Provides access to a user's unified address book
 Calender API
 Defines high level interfaces to obtain readaccess to a user’s
callender service


WEB APPS - DEVICE INFORMATION
 Geolocation
 Scripted access to geographical location information
 Get’s information from the hosting device
 IP address
 Wireless network connection
 Cell tower
 GPS


CONCLUSION


CONCLUSION
 Start using it today
 Use fallback mechanisms for older browsers
 Use feature detection instead of browser detection
 Pro’s
 Cross platform
 Cross browser
 Approaches native application experience
 Offline applications
 Contra’s
 Many features still in draft
 Only modern browsers
 JavaScript Driven / Not strong types
