By default, only the html and the body element (plus its children) of a web page are actually rendered. All information within the head element might be parsed and used by the browser, but most of the time it doesn’t get displayed. If you want to, you can use CSS to display these ‘hidden’ elements.

Showdown (also known as PageDown) is a JavaScript parser for Markdown-formatted text. It’s used on this site to generate a formatted preview of your comment as you type it. Showdown is library-agnostic, but fortunately, using it with jQuery isn’t much of a problem.

I was asked to give an introductory talk on HTML5 for the latest Adobe User Group Belgium Web SIG Event. The presentation I ended up with is entitled “HTML5: It goes to ELEVEN” and can be viewed on Slideshare. In this article, I’ll try to write down some of the things I talked about.

By now, everyone knows how to detect and use localStorage. However, I’ve been using a seemingly unconventional (but slightly more efficient) technique to do so. Since I haven’t seen it documented anywhere else, here goes!

In this post, we’ll take a closer look at what happens if there’s an unencoded ampersand that’s not part of a character reference in your HTML code. Is it valid? Is it invalid? And what do “ambiguous ampersands” have to do with all this?

Compared to using promises directly, not only can async and await make code more readable for developers — they enable some interesting optimizations in JavaScript engines, too! This write-up is about one such optimization involving stack traces for asynchronous code.

Since companies even in orange and green zones require components from red zones, the economic disruption has remained, and will remain, massive. The virus is still spreading fast, so economist Neelkanth Mishra estimates that red zones will expand from 130 districts to 181. The answer can’t be to keep shutting down more and more districts.

A woman died during treatment at Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH) on Saturday after she was allegedly thrashed by her husband Vinay Ram and other in-laws for opposing his illicit relationship with his aunt and brother’s wife (sister-in-law).
