That markup is really ugly (tons of div's along with unnecessary clearfix div's and weird classes). I noticed there was a comment on there that's now removed that linked to: http://bradshawenterprises.com/tests/formdemo.php http://bradshawenterprises.com/tests/formdemo.php which is a much better and cleaner example.

That's neat but it doesn't work in non-HTML5 browsers. Should't the goal of something like a registration page be to target as many people as possible?

How do things like this end up on the front page? The non HTML5 code in here isn't great, and when I tried in Safari the behavior was exactly the same as it was in FF, with the exception of the right corners being rounded and the select style fading in on click. There was 0 validation.

Eh - I expect better from Hacker News. The HTML coding of Twitter could be better. On top of that, making a whole post on something as tame as form validation is sad. Sure it may seem neat because HTML4 and HTML5 both suck, but anything looks good compared to crap.

I appreciate the effort on spreading the word about HTML5 and CSS3, but there are things in these articles that bother me a lot. Overuse of CSS3 animations brings back the 'skip intro' flash experience of the 90s, and I'm terrified that since it's a new toy, there'll be a tendency to overuse it. In this specific example, the speed of the animations (too slow) hinders usability and becomes distractive.

  It's like anything else, you just need to use it in moderation.
