While looking at my current theme bugs (Whiskey Air), I decided to take the next step and turn it into a full HTML 5 template.
So, after reading a bit of HTML 5 literature, I started changing the theme, bit by bit. I will release it free after doing all changes. I might even to add it to WordPress themes repository.
- So, the upcoming tasks should be:
- Use a framework - I found 52Framework and I must check it out.
- Use strict standards.
- Completely drop IE6 support – If you don’t agree with me on this, the following code should take care of your needs:
#someElement { background: red; /* modern browsers */ *background: green; /* IE 7 and below */ _background: yellow; /* IE6 exclusively */ }
- Make the theme compatible with 2.9 – 3.x only – No backwards compatibility for comments and widgets.
- Add custom functions and widgets.
- Add documentation.
- Release.
