HTML5 features in modern browsers like Internet Explorer 10 make possible a whole new class of Web applications and gaming scenarios. This two-part article demonstrates how I’ve used some of these new features to modernize my last HTML5 game, HTML5 Platformer. In Part 1 of this article, I covered how to use CSS3 3D Transform, Transitions, and Grid Layout. In this article, I’ll show you how to use the offline, drag-and-drop and file APIs to implement some interesting new ideas.
Playing a Game in Offline Mode
The original version of my game worked only if your device was currently connected to the Internet. If you wanted to play to my fabulous game while you were on the train, in a taxi, or somewhere else without an Internet connection, you were out of luck—stuck without access to the awesomeness. And that’s too bad, because there really isn’t anything in my game that needs a live connection to the Web server once all the resources have been downloaded. Fortunately, offline APIs provide a solution for this in HTML5.

Top Drawer is a smooth dropdown menu for responsive web design. It is designed to demonstrate smoother reveal menus in small contexts using CSS3 rather than animating with JavaScript.
Tap the menu icon in the top right. The click event will assign the class of active to the drawer container which alters the translate value to bring it into view. Modernizr will detect whether the user’s device is capable of CSS transforms, if it isn’t we simply show and hide the menu after the button is pressed – no point in animating if it isn’t going to work smoothly.

Modern browsers like Internet Explorer 10 support the width and height properties of the W3C Working Draft CSS Device Adaptation. This gives Web developers a simple tool to control automatic content scaling across various window dimensions. In particular, it enables sites to easily adapt to Windows 8 browsing on touch-enabled tablet devices in the snapped view and in portrait orientation.
Auto-Scaling and When It Is Used
Most websites have prioritized optimization for a 1024 pixel wide window. This ensures a good user experience for a wide variety of displays when the browser is maximized. However, sites may not work well on new form factors like tablets and portrait screen orientation if they haven’t optimized for other window sizes as well. In particular, pages often clip or distort layout when viewed in a narrow width.
This narrow layout is particularly important in Windows 8, where the snapped view of the browser is in this exact state. This situation also occurs for portrait mode on slate devices due to the smaller form factor. Read the rest of this entry »
