Arc de Triomphe

Commissioned by the Emperor Napoleon in 1806 to commemorate his

imperial armies, this familiar landmark is the world’s largest triumphal

arch. It dominates the famed Champs-Elysées and bears the names of

hundreds of Napoleon’s generals

along with four spectacular relief

sculptures. From its summit,

tourists view a breathtaking

panorama of Paris.

About the Author

Adam McDaniel has been designing, developing, modifying, and maintaining computer programs of one

language or another since 1993, and he has been an active proponent of HTML since being introduced to the

language in 1994.

Since that time, Adam has led a team of developers implementing an eCommerce fulfillment engine for a virtual

shopping mall, designed hundreds of corporate websites, and developed front-end HTML and back-end CGI

infrastructure for CADVision, at the time one of the largest ISPs in Western Canada. In 2001, Adam moved into the

software security sector, working for Hitachi ID Systems for over eight years, designing and implementing software

security recommendations for various Fortune 500 companies across the United States and Europe. Soon

afterwards, based on his past CGI experience, Adam wrote his first book, Perl and Apache: Your visual blueprint to

developing dynamic Web content . Most recently, Adam rejoined the HTML world as the lead OS architect for

Jolicloud, a Paris-based company, contributing to its HTML5 Linux operating system.

As Adam is always interested in new technologies and architectures, his other development credits include an

open-source offline HTML reader for the Palm OS platform, contributions to the Linux Kernel, and other utility

and specialty programs. In 2006, Adam produced the Array.org Netbook Kernel software download and website,

allowing users to download an optimized build of the Linux kernel, specific for the Ubuntu Linux distribution.

Author’s Acknowledgments

This book is the product of many significant people, without all of whom, this project would never have been

possible.

My expert Wiley editors were instrumental in shepherding this book into what you see today. Aaron Black, my

acquisitions editor, kept this project on schedule, and I am grateful to him for introducing me to the publishing

industry. Dana Lesh, my project editor, gracefully offered feedback and direction and prevented this book from

degrading into a garbled mess of inconsistent ideas and broken sentences. Also, thank you Neil Salkind and

Andrew Kim of StudioB; this is the first project we have worked on together, and I look forward to many more.

I would also like to thank the Jolicloud HTML5 team: Tariq Krim, Brenda O’Connell, Romain Huet, Jeremy Selier,

and Cedric Duclos. The desktop revolution offered by HTML5 and cloud computing is something few people could

have foreseen, it was great being on the ground floor with you all. In addition, thank you Adam Buckeridge for

your help with the book’s example site design and Derek Brans for your HTML5 and jQuery expertise.

To the HTML5 architects, designers, and developers from Mozilla, Opera, Google, and Apple who took the lead

in identifying the future of the Internet, shaping the HTML5 standard, and promoting it, thank you. The web

certainly would not be as awesome without your resources and innovation.

Finally, to my beautiful wife Shauna, without your many years of love, support, and encouragement, and even

your devil’s advocate (“I don’t think this you’ve thought this through”) feedback, I would be lost, overwhelmed,

and probably homeless. As this project was in the homestretch, your patience and understanding is what allowed

it to succeed. You always keep me grounded and focused, and I cherish the life and family we have built together.

This book is dedicated to my firstborn — my daughter, Brielle. Although today you are very young, one day you

may choose a career that has not even been invented yet. By then, I hope that I have inspired you to explore new

technologies, ask questions, investigate problems, and find innovative solutions in whatever path you take.
