guru01: You can search plugin directory for a backup plugin so you can backup your files and export it, then upload it later on.


OR

You can create a directory through the FTP remotely in your server, then copy all files into it.
After files have been copied, move the directory you copied file to up, i.e: where you have ".."; until you get to the directory you want, then extract the file in it.

You might also consider using the file manager system in your cpanel, its the same process.

NOTE: Test this technique on your local FTP before performing it on the remote server.

WHEN TO USE A SECTION ELEMENT

The new HTML5 SECTION element can be somewhat confusing. If you've been building HTML documents before HTML5, chances are you are already using the DIV element to create structural divisions within your pages and then style the pages with them.
The first thing to understand is that the SECTION element is a semantic element. This means that it provides meaning to both user agents and humans about what the enclosed content is—specifically a section of the document.

This may seem like a very general semantic description, and that's because it is. There are other HTML5 elements that provide more semantic distinctions to your content that you should use first, before you use the SECTION element:

ARTICLE ELEMENT
ASIDE ELEMENT
NAV ELEMENT

Use the ARTICLE element when the content is an independent part of the site that can stand alone and be syndicated like an article or blog post. Use the ASIDE element when the content is tangentially related to either the content of the page or the site itself, such as sidebars, annotations, footnotes, or associated site information. Use the NAV element for content that is navigation.

The SECTION element is a generic semantic element. You use it to specify a particular section of your webpage. Just like in a document, the table of content contains a list of sections and sub-sections of the content in that document. So, in your webpage you also might need to specify a section of the document, that's where the SECTION comes in. A SECTION element can also be found inside an ARTICLE, NAV, or ASIDE. You can even nest sections to indicate that one group of content is a section of another group of content that is a section of an article or the page as a whole.


The DIV element in HTML5 is a non-semantic container element. If the content you are trying to combine doesn't have a semantic meaning, but you still need to combine it for styling, then the DIV element is the appropriate element to use.

HOW SECTION ELEMENT WORKS

The SECTION element creates items inside an outline of the document. And as such, you should always have a header element (H1 through H6) as a part of the section. If you can't come up with a title for the section, then again the DIV element is probably more appropriate. Remember, if you don't want the section title to appear on the page, you can always mask it with CSS.


WHEN NOT TO USE THE SECTION ElEMENT

Beyond the advice above to use the more specific semantic elements first, there is one definite area that you should not use the SECTION element: for style only.

In other words, if the only reason you're putting an element in that place is to attach CSS style properties, you should not use a SECTION element. Find a semantic element or use the DIV element instead.

FINALLY

A difficulty in writing semantic HTML is that what is semantic to me may be utter nonsense to you. If you feel that you can justify using the SECTION element in your documents, then you should use it. Most user agents don't care and will display the page as you might expect whether you style a DIV or a SECTION.

For designers who like to be semantically correct, using the SECTION element in a semantically valid way is important. For designers who just want their pages to work, that isn't as important. I believe that writing semantically valid HTML is good practice and keeps the pages more future-proofed. But in the end it's up to you.

<SECTION> TAG in html5 specify a section in the webpage.
So when you use a section element you are telling the browser that this is a section, and also NOTE that a section should have a heading.
E.g: <section><header><h3></h3></header>followed by div tag or any thing you want to put on that section</section>
There is a browser plugin called HTML5 outliner that is used to see how your webpage is outlined. I use this plugin installed in chrome.

When you view your webpage with html5 outliner, you will find out that any section without a header and heading element will be named UNTITLED content/document.

E.g: <section><header><h3></h3></header><!--Followed by the section body</section>

I enjoy doing when its more difficult, because that's where i learn new things.
Its fun and i love when i got the solution.

Also Dreamweaver CS5 has a device view, change it to mobile and test.

especially when considering a lot of such folks are on mobile devices

95% of mobile device(smartphones) Support HTML5 and CSS3 so no worry, if you are building a mobile site, i will advice to use HTML5.

MSFT no longer supporting IE7

Am just saying, but soon it wont be supported. No source yet, its just an instinct.

[quote author=yawa-ti-de]Yes, there are plenty of fallbacks, like this one but I always have 2 questions which not many have been able to answer to my satisfaction (not to say it is bad to use them):
1) Is it worth importing extra KB of JavaScript (or whatever code) just to use HTML5 or CSS3?
2) What happens when the browser you are targetting does support HTML/CSS3? Will you need to go back and take out these extra libraries or will everything fall into place automatically?[/quote]Good questions.
1) Its worth importing kb of scripting code for the sake of those who still rely on their IE lte 9, and also for those who still use window XP. Because the code will only work for them. That's where Modernizer come into play. It detects of that browser support HTML5/CSS3.

2) If your browser supports HTML5/CSS3 it simply ignores the code and carryout the HTML.
This fallback won't be a disadvantage even if all browsers support new standards, if you are still developing to support IE 6 or 7 you better stop, because even Micro soft doesn't support it.

Let say for example, you wanted to create a form(create secure form with html5 is cool and with css3 its sexy) after creating your form, you need to validate with JS, HTML5 makes it easy for me by using the "required, placeholder, date, tel, number, text, etc
" attribute.

I made up to 10m, but no serious marketing done.
2013 I will double that amount.

What do you do to client that their project is taking forever to complete?
They keep delaying the project, is there any action someone can take?

Here is a good list of HTML5 fall back: https://github.com/Modernizr/Modernizr/wiki/HTML5-Cross-Browser-Polyfills
It also includes CSS3/4 fallback. You don't need to worry about IE

uchdollar111: I als want to know i'm interested my email is uchdollar@gmail.com

Send me an email

[quote author=yawa-ti-de]Looks good all in all.

2) The "about us dropdown only looks good on the home page and not on other pages (has white font, which is unreadable)[/quote]You need to change the font color

Taiw: i'm working on a job portal site using visual studio 2010 and i ave already designed d layout but my challenges are:
1. since i'll be updating it frequently, how do i design it in such a way to ease the updates without seeing the html codes
2. If i make a post on the subcategory, how do i make it appear automatically on d homepage or do i nid to copy and paste again?
3. I want to be able to alert my registered users if dere is an update.how do i go about it.
You could also recommend books that can aid the development of the site.

What you need is a database driven site. Probably a CMS will do.
