    1. For a long time, I thought of HTML as a tool for publishing on the web, a way to create websites that other people can look at. But all these websites I’m creating are my local, personal archives – just for me. I’m surprised it took me this long to realise HTML isn’t just for sharing on the web.

      Yes. I use lots of small local html/php pages. Also webforms to search websites elsewhere, without going there. I had local pages to browse local image files in the 90s. I started writing html by hand in '93 and still do for local stuff. I do use a local on-device webserver though, as I include php.

      I like this idea of having static html as page to explore folders, I had that in the 90s to better search for image files. Author offers no clues as to how he uses the affordance it provides though, in terms of 'showing the metadata' they care for and the little bits of extra functionality. And I wonder about the effort involved when adding new files. Presumably new files are added manually too, otherwise it's not 'static html'. Stores files by year, type and first letter of file name. That makes no immediate sense to me in terms of finding things back. Then again I never understood why you would have folders for file types. It's like sorting items on the type of box it came in. Good example though of making your computer your own.

    1. For some reason, Microsoft decided to use the MS Word HTML rendering engine in Outlook 2007 to 2013 (desktop version) – this was even worse than the IE5/IE6 rendering engine which I believe was used in Outlook 2000, 2002 and 2003! As most large corporate businesses force their staff to use a version of desktop Outlook that hasn’t been updated in years, email is stuck in this hell of being held back in worse-than-IE6 web.

    1. An example of the latter would be something like keeping track of the precise coordinate from which a popup div was made to animate, so that if the user goes back, it can be made to animate to the same location. Or alternatively, it could be used to keep a pointer into a cache of data that would be fetched from the server based on the information in the URL, so that when going back and forward, the information doesn't have to be fetched again.

      "7.4.1.1 Session history entries" doesn't mention whether focus is saved, only scroll has dedicated "attributes" in a history entry, but what this paragraph seems to allude to is that focus can be saved too (and indeed it can).

      (See pushState.)

    1. Validations allow us to set specific constraints or rules that determine what data users can enter into an input. When a user enters data that breaks the rules, a message will appear, providing feedback on what was wrong with the entered data and how to fix it.

      HTML forms have an internal validation mechanism.

    1. ✅ We can actually use a neat trick which basically consists in making a CSS grid with a single grid item. All we really have to do then, is taking our grid-template-rows and make it transition from 0fr to 1fr: this way, our grid item will transition from 0 to its "natural" height. It's THAT simple:

      ```css .accordion - body { display: grid; grid - template - rows: 0 fr; transition: 250 ms grid - template - rows ease; }

      .accordion: hover.accordion - body { grid - template - rows: 1 fr; }

      .accordion - body>div { overflow: hidden; } ```

    1. Las acciones que se pueden realizar dentro de un formulario son definidas como form controls. El número de acciones es bastante grande y vale la pena revisar todas las posibilidades.

    1. I’m sure you can imagine, the ability to shift an element around based on its regular position is pretty useful. I find myself using this to line up form elements many times that have a tendency to not want to line up how I want them to.
    1. I don't particularly recommend that you just use this in its unaltered state in your own projects. It should be tweaked, edited, extended, and otherwise tuned to match your specific reset baseline.

      Aún cuando se trata de un reseteo completo de estilo CSS, proponentes de este método como es the Meyer's Reset recomiendan sobreescribir partes del reseteo con las preferencias personales del diseñador. Esto quiere decir que un reseteo no debe ser un reseteo en blanco, sino un reseteo hacia el estándar o base que el diseñador prefiera.

    1. Hay una serie de buenas prácticas en la fabricación de tablas que permiten una interacción más eficiente entre el usuario y la data que se busca comunicar. Una buena experiencia entre el usuario y las tablas dentro de una página web dependen en suma del diseño establecido. La fabricación de buenas tablas en la web solo requieren de conocimientos de HTML y CSS.

    1. To give you some interesting examples, in the case of a long table you could make the table header and footer repeat on every printed page, and you could make the table body display on a single page and have the contents available by scrolling up and down.

      Las etiquetas <thead>, <tbody>, and <tfoot> proveen a las tablas HTML una fuerte capacidad de personalización a través de selectores CSS.

    1. Now, you can add <hr> (horizontal rule) elements into the list of select options and they will appear as separators to help visually break up the options
      <div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Code"> ```html <label for="major-select">Please select a major:</label> <br/> <select name="majors" id="major-select"> <option value="">Select a major</option>

    1. Did you know you can now use streaming promises in SvelteKit? No need to import anything - it just works out of the box

      Every property of an object returned by the load function can be a promise which itself can return an object that can have a promise as property, and so on.

      Can build a tree of promises based on data delivery priority.

      ```

    1. Security considerations When inserting HTML into a page by using insertAdjacentHTML(), be careful not to use user input that hasn't been escaped.

      ```html <select id="position"> <br /> <option>beforebegin</option>

      <option>afterbegin</option> <option>beforeend</option> <option>afterend</option>

      </select>

      <button id="insert">Insert HTML</button> <button id="reset">Reset</button>

      Some text, with a code-formatted element inside it.

      ```

      ```js const insert = document.querySelector("#insert"); insert.addEventListener("click", () => { const subject = document.querySelector("#subject"); const positionSelect = document.querySelector("#position"); subject.insertAdjacentHTML( positionSelect.value, "inserted text" ); });

      const reset = document.querySelector("#reset"); reset.addEventListener("click", () => { document.location.reload(); });

      ```

    1. Use insertAdjacentHTML(). It works with all current browsers, even with IE11.

      js var mylist = document.getElementById('mylist'); mylist.insertAdjacentHTML('beforeend', '<li>third</li>');

      ```html

      • first
      • second

      ```

    2. HTML 5 introduced the <template> element which can be used for this purpose (as now described in the WhatWG spec and MDN docs). A <template> element is used to declare fragments of HTML that can be utilized in scripts. The element is represented in the DOM as a HTMLTemplateElement which has a .content property of DocumentFragment type, to provide access to the template's contents. This means that you can convert an HTML string to DOM elements by setting the innerHTML of a <template> element, then reaching into the template's .content property.

      ```js /* * @param {String} HTML representing a single element * @return {Element} / function htmlToElement(html) { var template = document.createElement('template'); html = html.trim(); // Never return a text node of whitespace as the result template.innerHTML = html; return template.content.firstChild; }

      var td = htmlToElement('<td>foo</td>'), div = htmlToElement('<div><span>nested</span> <span>stuff</span></div>');

      /* * @param {String} HTML representing any number of sibling elements * @return {NodeList} / function htmlToElements(html) { var template = document.createElement('template'); template.innerHTML = html; return template.content.childNodes; }

      var rows = htmlToElements('<tr><td>foo</td></tr><tr><td>bar</td></tr>'); ```

    1. HTML templating and streaming response library for Worker Runtimes such as Cloudflare Workers.

      js function handleRequest(event: FetchEvent) { return new HTMLResponse(pageLayout('Hello World!', html` <h1>Hello World!</h1> ${async () => { const timeStamp = new Date( await fetch('https://time.api/now').then(r => r.text()) ); return html`<p>The current time is ${timeEl(timeStamp)}.</p>` }} `)); }

    1. ```js function makeDocument() { let frame = document.getElementById("theFrame");

      let doc = document.implementation.createHTMLDocument("New Document"); let p = doc.createElement("p"); p.textContent = "This is a new paragraph.";

      try { doc.body.appendChild(p); } catch (e) { console.log(e); }

      // Copy the new HTML document into the frame

      let destDocument = frame.contentDocument; let srcNode = doc.documentElement; let newNode = destDocument.importNode(srcNode, true);

      destDocument.replaceChild(newNode, destDocument.documentElement); } ```

    1. You can have multiple nested React.lazy components inside React.Suspense.

      ```js

      const CatAvatar = React.lazy(() => import('./path/to/cat/avatar')); const ThorAvatar = React.lazy(() => import('./path/to/cat/thor-avatar'));

      const AppContainer = () => ( <React.Suspense fallback="loading..."> <CatAvatar /> <ThorAvatar /> </React.Suspense> ); ```

    1. CSS-generated content is not included in the DOM. Because of this, it will not be represented in the accessibility tree and certain assistive technology/browser combinations will not announce it. If the content conveys information that is critical to understanding the page's purpose, it is better to include it in the main document.
    1. Microdata DOM API

      Warning: Microdata were implemented in some browsers for a long time. Nowadays, they have been abandoned and removed from all browsers and are therefore deprecated. You can't use them anymore and this document is kept as information only.

    1. The microdata becomes even more useful when scripts can use it to expose information to the user, for example offering it in a form that can be used by other applications.The document.getItems(typeNames) method provides access to the top-level microdata items. It returns a NodeList containing the items with the specified types, or all types if no argument is specified.Each item is represented in the DOM by the element on which the relevant itemscope attribute is found. These elements have their element.itemScope IDL attribute set to true.The type of items can be obtained using the element.itemType IDL attribute on the element with the itemscope attribute.

      ```js // This sample shows how the getItems() method can be used to obtain a list // of all the top-level microdata items of one type given in the document:

      var cats = document.getItems("http://example.com/feline"); ```

      ```js // This sample gets the first item of type "http://example.net/user" // and then pops up an alert using the "name" property from that item.

      var user = document.getItems('http://example.net/user')[0]; alert('Hello ' + user.properties['name'][0].content + '!'); ```

      ```js // The HTMLPropertiesCollection object, when indexed by name in this way, // actually returns a PropertyNodeList object with all the matching properties. // The PropertyNodeList object can be used to obtain all the values at once // using its values attribute, which returns an array of all the values.

      var cat = document.getItems('http://example.org/animals#cat')[0]; var colors = cat.properties['http://example.com/color'].values; var result; if (colors.length == 0) { result = 'Color unknown.'; } else if (colors.length == 1) { result = 'Color: ' + colors[0]; } else { result = 'Colors:'; for (var i = 0; i < colors.length; i += 1) result += ' ' + colors[i]; } ```

    1. Forwarding will always break emails specially in Outlook as it adds it's own code before composing. You can have a forward link on emails which takes you to a page to forward to a friend or you can go with a broken email when it's forwarded. It's harsh I know but there is no way around it.

    1. I had been wrapping my components with an improper tag that is, NextJS is not comfortable having a p tag wrapping your divs, sections etc so it will yell "Hydration failed because the initial UI does not match what was rendered on the server". So I solved this problem by examining how my elements were wrapping each other.

    1. There are plenty of articles about the emergence of PyScript for embedding Python code directly into HTML, but until now the creation of browser extensions in Python has been something of a closed door.

      One can use PyScript to write browser extensions in Python (or at least some simple ones?)

    1. 🧐 Why is there no event.preventDefault on the button? A <button type="button">, while seemingly redundant, is the HTML way of preventing a button from submitting its form.
