HTML5 --> where to start?! (compatibility with older)

I am aware of the great, wide new spectre of possibilities, but I have almost no clue about Html5.

As one of the (from many) way to exponentially send back IE6 to the Big-Bang era - is to massively accept new technologies and methods... Well let's go with HTML5. How to embrace it in the meaning of compatibility without spending 70%+ time we usually spent looking at a Microsoft product.

Let's say we decide to start our new project in HTML5, what are the best practicies, problematics, links, infos... all related with older browsers compatib..

Do we have to create html5 docs apart or are they handable and how by oldyes.

Any good link or suggestion or explanation?

I started with html5boilerplate - it's a great way to begin

If you can afford a book, I'd recommend hard boiled webdesign by Andy Clarke

good luck

It looks like you are looking for a massive amount of information here...

What I would suggest is to visit a site such as net.tutsplus.com and do a search for html5. I would also get acquainted with the html5 shiv and other techniques to provide cross-browser compatibility.

The rules for using features added in HTML 5 are the same as those we have been following for the past decade. Use progressive enhancement as normal.
