WhitherApps
august 2010 by vdm
WhitherApps is a bandwagon-busting experiment. I believe there are far too many native client apps which could have been far better written as mobile web apps. What we’re going to try and do is take a few examples, apply a little reverse-engineering, and rewrite them, warts and all, with web technologies. Why spend your life recompiling native client apps when you have HTML5 and the mighty mobile web at your disposal?

Early History of HTML - 1990 to 1992 < Sean Palmer
august 2010 by vdm
In fact, although HTML has changed relatively little since those early days, the history of HTML is rather cloudy. However, with a little detective work on the Web, it is possible to reconstruct most of the events that led to the creation and subsequent deployment and acception of HTML

nathell's sunflower at master - GitHub
april 2010 by vdm
Sunflower extracts the text proper out of similarly-formatted HTML files. When you download an offline mirror of a Web site, the HTML files typically consist mostly of noise, such as advertisements, header, footer, a bunch of links. Sunflower is able to extract most of this noise automatically, with only minimal human intervention. Sunflower (and its predecessor) has been used to extract many press texts for the National Corpus of Polish.

Cocoa with Love: Objective-C's niche: why it survives in a world of alternatives
october 2009 by vdm
Objective-C remains an impediment for many programmers coming to the Mac or iPhone platforms — few programmers have ever experienced it before learning Cocoa, forcing two learning curves at once for new Cocoa developers. How did Apple end up with such a weird language? And for a company known to replace CPU architectures and their entire operating system, why does Apple persist with Objective-C? The answer lies in the methods.

xhtmlrenderer: The Flying Saucer Project - an XHTML renderer written in Java
august 2009 by vdm
It's 100% Java, not a native wrapper, and it only handles well-formed XHTML + CSS. It is intended for embedding web-based user interfaces into Java applications (ex. web photo album generator, help viewer, iTunes Music Store clone). It cannot be used as a general purpose web browser since it does not support the malformed legacy HTML found on the web, though recent work on compatibility libraries may be enough to do what you need. You may be able to work with legacy HTML (e.g. HTML that is not well-formed XML) by using a pre-processor that cleans it up; there are several of these, including JTidy and TagSoup.

WPF WYSIWYG HTML Editor
august 2009 by vdm
It turns out there is a wealth of useful functionality available here which isn't exposed via the WebBrowser control itself- functionality for formatting html in the WebBrowser, and (crucially) for accessing the designMode property of the document, which effectively changes it from a read-only view of the HTML to an editable one which accepts user input (which is 90% of the work done already, in a single line of code!). Of course, the Windows Forms WebBrowser control exposed this property itself, and I'm sure that the WPF one will also do so in its next release, but for the time being, the only way to get at it is via the native HTMLDocument.

What does the history of the web tell us about its future? « Derivadow.com
june 2009 by vdm
Don’t think about HTML documents – think about the things and concepts that matter to people and give each it’s own identifier, it’s own URI and then put in place the technology to dereference that URI to the document appropriate to the device. Whether that be a desktop PC, a mobile device, an IPTV or third party app.
