In HTML5: Web Forms in Depth, author Joe Marini details the
latest enhancements for client-side forms found in HTML5. Using
real-world examples, the course showcases the capabilities of
the specification's new attributes and form elements, such as
displaying default placeholder text, setting required fields,
capturing email addresses, and presenting calculation results

forms while maintaining backwards compatibility for older
browsers. Exercise files accompany the course.
