As many of you may know, some of the HTML5 items have started to be supported in some browsers. Google have taken the next step by changing some of their coding to match into the new HTML 5 coding. In HTML5, the doctype declaration has changed to: <!doctype html>If you view source Google, then you will see that they have indeed adopted this new declaration. Is this the start of a transition to HTML 5?  |

Most likely.. so the <!doctype html> is like a censor? lol, for the original Doctype declaration?

Not a censor, it's a change in standards for HTML5. If you're running your page with HTML5 compliant coding then you should use the new doctype. |

Oh, God, I can't say how happy the new Doctype declaration makes me. The old Doctype standards were atrocious. Whoever thought they were a good idea was on something.
Not that I can see why the Doctype is even still existant. It doesn't tell anything that <html> doesn't, and in the most extreme scenario, you could just append to <html> with an attribute.
But, I'm sure there are reasons.

<3 short declarations. HTML5 is a welcome new set of standards to me.  Brings a lot of fun toys out. I'm not the least bit surprised that Google was one of the first major entities to adopt HTML5. |
