Are we leaving questions blank now? :) Anyways I have found that the Firefox beta has pretty good HTML5 support followed by google chrome. Although, according to html5tests.com (on my phone, I think that is the right link.) Chrome scores a bit higher than Firefox.

I think I may have accidently deleted your comment, since I'm on my phone. Anyways not just talking about HTML5 suport I prefer Chrome on Mac and for some reason Firefox 4 beta on Windows. Since HTML5 isnt hugely popular yet I'm not that worried, if there is an HTML5 site I might switch to a different browser. I'm sure tgy will all have support for it soon

As of 10-10-10, Chrome is in the lead, but what kind of HTML5 are you looking for? I prefer to watch H.264 videos with AAC/M4A audio, but Chrome doesn't support that. There are so many different aspects that you need to consider between who has the most HTML5 support and the best HTML5 support.

0	So far I have had great compatibility with HTML5 with Google Chrome and Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) has been optimized for it. answered Oct 10 '10 at 16:59 Matthew 8.6k●139●221●245

I went to a meeting with Philippe Le Hegaret, who is the Interaction Domain Leader of W3C and he was very persistent on letting the group know that Firefox4 will have the better HTML5 support. Some browsers have their style of display (such as Opera has better HTML5 audio controls than FF3.6).

He showed us this slideshow during the meeting.

0	I've found that Google Chrome 8.0.552.200 beta has the best HTML5 support from the HTML Browser Test I carried out. answered Nov 16 '10 at 16:59 DazOwen 5.9k●77●104●159

0	I've been very impressed with Firefox 4 Beta HTML5 support. IE9 is suppose to be very good also but I don't use windows 7 all that much. answered Nov 16 '10 at 19:06 paddyt007 1.2k●3●10●31
