    HTML5 is the newer specification for HTML.
    HTML5 is much much better but isn't as widely supported as plain old HTML.

    HTML is used to describe webpages.
    HTML 5 is simply a newer version that is expected to be the new standard.
    You can learn more from www.w3schools.com.

    Do you know what HTML4 or XHTML is? Let's start there.
    Every few years, the W3C revamps HTML to meet new requirements and standards that have developed over the years. For example, video. Four or five years ago, video wasn't as widely used as it is now. It was therefore marked up with ambiguous tags like <object> or <embed>. HTML5 has created a slew of tags that are easier to use and more specific to each web page's content use. In addition, new tags have been created to allow programmers easier integration into the pages structure. Ex: <canvas>
    I would recommend reading more about it. Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and IE9 already support HTML5 as well as CSS3. There are patches for IE8 and IE7. But HTML5 is also backwards compatible so the bigger problem is CSS3, not HTML5.

    I think XIRA pretty much summed it up. They gave us new tags to use to make it easier to build sites using HTML/CSS and deprecated the useless tags that most people don't use anymore.

    As we all know HTML5 is the brand new version of HTML and the least major version were HTML4 and HTML1. HTML5 is really marvelous version.But this version is not support completely yet.According to my suggestion first of all create rules in css that accommodate your visitors.

    HTML
    1. DOCTYPE is much longer as HTML4 is based on SGML-based.
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">


    2. Audio and Video are not part of HTML4 specification

    3. Vector Graphics is possible with the help of technologies such as VML, Silverlight, Flash etc.
    4. It is almost impossible to get true GeoLocation of user browsing any website especially if it comes to mobile devices.
    5. Browser cache can be used as temporary storage.
    6. Web Sockets are not available. Generally used mechanisms are long polling and streaming.
    7. Works with all old browsers
    8. Does not allow JavaScript to run in browser. JS runs in same thread as browser interface.

    HTML5

    1. DOCTYPE is required to enable standards mode for HTML documents.
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    2. Audio and Videos are integral part of HTML5 specifications e.g. <audio> and <video> tags
    3. Vector graphics is integral part of HTML5 e.g. SVG and canvas
    4. JS GeoLocation API in HTML5 helps identify location of user browsing any website (provided user allows it)
    5. Application Cache, Web SQL database and Web storage is available as client side storage. Accessible using JavaScript interface in HTML5 compliant browsers.
    6. Full duplex communication channels can be established with Server using Web Sockets. Accessible using JavaScript interface in HTML5 compliant browsers.
    7. Most of modern browser have started supporting HTML5 specification e.g. Firefox, Mozilla, Opera, Chrome, Safari etc.
    8. Allows JavaScript to run in background. This is possible due to JS Web worker API in HTML5

    HTML5 looks awesome.

    However, god damn Internet Explorer more than likely won't support it until the year 3,000 while the other browsers will support it perhaps in a couple of years. Seriously, can we please rid of IE on the web?
