1. Top 10 Major Advantages of HTML5
HTML5 is the newest version of the HyperText Markup Language that was developed in the late 80’s in order to describe documents that linked to each other. In it’s early days, HTML’s role was simple, to help describe a document’s structure and to allow cross-linking of documents.
Today the language has grown substantially and it’s gained two allies that are closely associated with it. CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is supposed to help HTML look great by describing the way that the document is supposed to look. JavaScript is supposed to build interactivity.

5. jQuery AJAX Example
The aim of this example is to give you a full understanding of AJAX, which stands for Asynchronous Javascript and XML. Ajax is not a programming language or a tool, but a concept.

In a more narrowly-defined sense, it refers to the use of XmlHttpRequest objects to interact with a web server dynamically via JS.
