Over the past several years, Mozilla's
collection of developer documentation for its own web browsers has turned into a wiki-editable reference of web standards for developers working with
all browsers, hosting a comprehensive, no-nonsense reference of
HTML,
HTML5,
CSS,
JavaScript, the
DOM, and
more. If you find yourself turning to this reference frequently,
dochub provides instant access to Mozilla's documentation for any HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or DOM-related topic. If you're worried that a fancy new standard might not work in an older browser,
canIuse will tell you exactly how many browsers will support that new standard. Still want to use that shiny new standard?
Modernizr and
yepnope will let you detect missing features, and load
tiny bits of code to make old browsers support the latest HTML5 hotness.

JavaScript and
HTML5 Weekly, run by
MetaFilter's own wackybrit]

CSS3 Pie. Google's
Frame requires users to install Frame in order to get the benefits of CSS3 support (among other things). CSS3 Progressive Internet Explorer aims to bring support for CSS3 in IE versions 6 through 8 via a server side script. It's early days for the extent of supported properties but there are more to come. If it's ultimately functional and useful long term remains to be seen.
