Answer 3

Opera also has some support.

Generally however, it is too early to test out. You'll probably have to wait a year or 2 before any browser will have enough realistic support to test against.

EDIT Wikipedia has a good article on how much of HTML 5 various layout engines have implemented. It includes specific aspects of HTML 5.

Answer 4

i think right now is Firefox 3.6.2, but when internet explorer 9 launched, it will support HTML5

Answer 5

To test your browser, go to http://html5test.com/. The code is being maintained at: github dot com slash NielsLeenheer slash html5test.

Answer 6

Seems that new browsers support most of the tags: <header>, <section> etc. For older browsers (IE, Fx2, Camino etc) then you can use this to allow styling of these tags:

document.createElement('header');

Would make these older browsers allow CSS styling of a header tag, instead of just ignoring it.

This means that you can now use the new tags without any loss of functionality, which is a good start!
