CONVERSION ISSUES17

Planning the Process
• Decide which syntax you will use.• Add new DOCTYPE.• Reduce content in <head> (see PDF).• Remove all presentation tags and
attributes, and replace with CSS.• Remove all table tags and replace with
structural tags.• If necessary, learn HTML4, CSS, and
semantics.

Here’s What You Need to Know
• Adding the new HTML 5 DOCTYPE makes the page HTML 5.• Google now uses HTML 5.
• You can use many of the new elements and attributes now.• Obsolete elements will still work.
However, the page won’t be valid HTML 5.• See PDF – page 1 for list.
