 According to Microsoft pre-release software - Microsoft is also offering its users a new version of Internet Explorer 10. Specifically, the Windows 8 Consumer Preview, Windows Server 8 Beta, and Visual Studio 11 Beta — it’s worth noting that Microsoft has bundled the fifth Internet Explorer 10 Platform Preview in the Windows 8 CP build (so unfortunately, those of you on Windows 7 who are eager to test this out are still stuck on the second IE10 Platform Preview.

As expected, in all of the main things on the agenda for Internet Explorer 10 is increased HTML5 support. Technically this is the fifth platform preview version of Internet Explorer 10 that Microsoft has released. It has improved its support for the following HTML5 features: Asynchronous script execution, App Cache, drag-and-drop APIs, the file API, forms, history, parsing, sandbox, spell check, video, web workers, channel messaging, and Web Sockets. 

There have also been a number of improvements made to CSS3 support for visual effects — such as 3-D transforms, animations, fonts, gradients, transitions, text, drop shadows— and layout bits like exclusions, regions, grid alignment, multi-column layout, and device adaptation. If you’re a core developer interested in Internet Explorer’s upcoming scope of support for the many new HTML5 features, head on over to the developer guide from the Microsoft Official website.
