is it me or do the webpages seem a bit laggy?

edit: not in loading times, in scrolling up and down.

I am getting an issue in Chrome, but not in IE (but IE also doesn't show the same formatting).

IE 8 doesn't support HTML5 or CSS3 i don't think..

The lag seems really noticeable in chrome for me, not so much in the Firefox 4 b1. and there's no lag in the Internet Explorer 9 Preview :). Though, that might be because image-size: 100% (which scales the image to fit the browser window) hasn't worked...

I see no lag in FF 3.6.6

You oculd try putting the correct DocTYPE in :D

!DOCTYPE html
(with the < and > bits in..._)

HTML 5 isn't there ;)

Do I really need to post instructions for googling 'HTML 5 doctype'? ;)

It seems however that you have the correct doctype already:

!DOCTYPE html

is correct.

yes i do :)

It's probably just browser function?
As it works better in other browsers than others.

Yup HTML 5 is still very much a work in progress, and you can expect support for the various features it provides to vary a great deal across browsers and even across different versions of the same browser.

Given that in the real world it's still necessary to support IE6, I suspect that I won't be writing HTML5 code for anything other than my own personal projects or intranet apps for quite a while yet.

agreed, though i think the more html5 websites out there, the faster browsers will evolve to support it more?
I know mine is just a small one lol :) And yeah i like to try a lot of new things :)

Thats an odd looking doctype :lol:

Well, HTML5 is not descended from XHTML, which is where Doctypes come from.

It's more of an update of HTML4, with imported concepts from XHTML 1 and 2 and a bunch of new ideas (e.g. tags for new media types and, most interestingly for developers, client-side persistent data) all rolled in.

It's certainly interesting, and it seems to have the broad backing from the 'players' in the industry which means that it probably will eventually see wide adoption.

If nothing else, it will finally kill off frames and framesets (completely dropped from the standard), and font tags, which can only be a good thing :).

I though even html4 documents should have a doctype?

Hmm yeah, now you mention it I think you're right. I've been writing HTML since before the 2.0 RFC was published (there wasn't a 1.0) so I get a bit hazy about what was added when at times :).

I get a bit of lag in chrome, the background image seems to take a while. However this connection I have at the moment isn't brilliant so I wouldn't read too much into it.

Yes they do.

Thankfully my website is dedicated to the Linux world so i could easily update to HTML5 without many problems since most Linux folk keep far more up-to-date than Windows folk.

Still laggy on Chromium (Iron Browser 5.0.381) and that background image definitely needs some optimisation (i.e. reduce it's file-size). Very noticeable load time on my 10MB connection.

andyn

Aye 1.3MB is pretty ridiculous for the background of a web page, that's your major problem.

reduced to 251kb :D

Lags on Chrome when scrolling, FF is best for CSS3.

Only nags about the site is the nav bar and the curved corners on mouseover. You can change this so its like the nav bar on my site (www.mammatt.co.uk), where only the end tabs have curved corners.

Also think you need some sort of border which will outline the black nav bar on the black background.

Other than that, looking awesome.

that's what it was like before on the template i copied and pasted ;), though i preferred them to all have rounded edges :D as my nav bar isn't long enough.
