Markup Review

Italian user group website for web development.

This is a fairly large website and complicated webiste and it’s good to see it using HTML5 markup. The main header is contained within a header element, nav is used to enclose the main site navigation and hgroup encloses two h elements. The header also contains the search form which makes use of the new input type="search".

The various sidebars are enclosed in aside elements and each “box” within the content is enclosed within its own article. The articles themselves each contain a header and a footer, although the header only contains a single h2, so the header could have been left out. The time element is also used to enclose the article’s timestamp.

As a side not, the type attribute no longer needs to be specified for the script and style elements.
