1 Introduction
1.1 Is this HTML5?
Features that are not currently in this document that were in the
past
considered part of HTML5, or that were never part of HTML5 but have
been referred to as part of HTML5 in the media, include:
* Web Workers
* Web Storage
* Web Sockets API
* Web Sockets protocol
* Server-sent Events
* Web SQL Database
* Geolocation API
* SVG
* MathML
* XMLHttpRequest
But, It is a Classification.
No change, the usefulness is.
