HTML5 is coming to your e-book reader! With the release of the EPUB 3 specification, HTML5 support is now officially part of EPUB standard, and publishers will be able to take full advantage of HTML5's feature set to add rich media and interactivity to their e-book content.

HTML5 for Publishers gives an overview of some of the most exciting features HTML5 provides to e-book content creators: audio / video, geolocation, and the Canvas. Learn how to put them in action.

Also discover how to:

• Intersperse audio / video with textual content
• Create a graphing calculator to display algebraic equations on the Canvas
• Use geolocation to customize a work of fiction with details from the reader's location
• Use Canvas to add an interactive "finger painting" app to your e-book
• Make interactive EPUB files for the iPad.
