You can start using HTML5 with Salesforce to build Visualforce pages and mobile applications. The restriction lies mainly with the browser support.

To start using HTML5 you need to add the following doctype to the <apex:page> tag.

 

<apex:page docType="html-5.0" sidebar="false" showHeader="false" standardStylesheets="false" cache="true" controller="MyController__c" >

 Other options being optional for HTML5 and <apex:page> tag.

 

This blog post talks about HTML5 + Visualforce + Mobile apps: http://blogs.developerforce.com/developer-relations/2011/12/visualforce-html5-mobile.html

I'm experiencing an issue where I put doctype="html-5.0" in <apex:page> yet the page doesn't render <!DOCTYPE html>.

 

The only way I can get the page to render <!DOCTYPE html> is to have showHeader="false", which is not a solution.

 

Any thoughts?
