I'm currently tasked with making some digital signage, which will display an agenda of sorts for an event in a table format, along with some header and footer graphics. I'm trying to make my decision to use either html5 or flash, however I don't have much experience with digital signage, so I was hoping for some input. My main concern is how html5 will rescale vs flash on different screen sizes. Thanks!

I recomend that you use HTML5, even though to me, flash seems more powerfull, HTML5 is very practical and very easy to rescale, i think your decision depends of your experience with these diferent digital signages.
I use flash, but only because i can't choose!

I also work for a digital signage company and have built many projects in both Flash and HTML5 and I would always go with HTML5. Support for Flash isn't as strong as it once was and you can do everything in HTML5 that you could have done in Flash. Rescaling in HTML isn't much a concern if you use modern HTML development and code the pages using Responsive Web Design.

I am looking for some online editor which provides drag and drop features to build the HTML code for text boxes, buttons, radio, tables etc.
Please help me is there is any website available for this like a Dream viewer?
What you are looking for is Bootstrap Studio, this is the description from their home page :
It comes with a large number of built-in components, which you can
drag and drop to assemble responsive web pages. The app is built on
top of the hugely popular Bootstrap framework, and exports clean and
semantic HTML.
I don't think there is any services that supports what you want (from what I've guessed when you say "drag and drop features"). Most of these online IDE sites that supports these features tries to sell you their services by publishing and broadcasting the entire webpage for you. Most online HTML IDE are only code based.
Regardless, I still strongly recommend Adobe Dreamweaver. It's quite versitile with drag and drop features to a certain margin. It also requires coding but its template is quite straight forward, code-wise, and visually appealing.
If you still want to give it a try, however, there is a life hack. This article may help you. You can try building the webpage on wix and then exporting HTML.

and another book for CSS3 or a a book for both in one , I searched amazon
and found plenty of results but I don't know which one is comprehensive and
in-depth Explaining all Details and all about HTML .
note : I have seen the post Learn HTML5 and CSS3 but i don't like websites resources
I want text books.
Thanks
A good start to get the basics is to read Dive Into HTML5 by Mark Pilgrim. You can even try before you buy because it's free. Another suggestion is Pro HTML 5 Programming: Powerful APIs for Richer Internet Application Development (not free).
For the most comprehensive read I recommend the HTML5 specifications which goes into all the tiny details.
Head First HTML5 Programming is by far the best book I have ever seen for newbie front-end developer.
Here is List of Best Books to learn HTML5:
HTML5: Up and Running
Head First HTML5 Programming
HTML5 for Masterminds
Introducing HTML 5

We want to start new Web-base project.We need to provide interaction with devices services such as Calendar, Contacts, Camera, etc.(Possibly with upnp)
In a real project from Silverlight and HTML5 which one is a better choice?
Why?
For sake of simplicity I would use Silverlight. It is much easier to access a USB Webcamera via Silverlight over HTML5. On the flip side if your using an IP camera I would go with HTML5.
It's honestly up to you. I would go with whichever framework you are more familiar with. But keep in mine whatever you can do in HTML5 you CAN do (and more) in Silverlight. Silverlight has more power than HTML5 because you get all the HTML features as well as the Silverlight features. In HTML you only get HTML

Are there any highly recommended resources for getting started with HTML5 and CSS3 for designing web applications?
Seems to be the wave of the future..Lets hear everyones thoughts

I saw this the other day and it is super awesome
http://html5boilerplate.com/
HTML5 Boilerplate is the professional badass's base HTML/CSS/JS template for a fast, robust and future-proof site.
After more than two years in iterative development, you get the best of the best practices baked in: cross-browser normalization, performance optimizations, even optional features like cross-domain Ajax and Flash. A starter apache .htaccess config file hooks you the eff up with caching rules and preps your site to serve HTML5 video, use #font-face, and get your gzip zipple on.
Boilerplate is not a framework, nor does it prescribe any philosophy of development, it's just got some tricks to get your project off the ground quickly and right-footed.
There are about 20 articles covering specific aspects of HTML5 and CSS3 on Dev.Opera. See http://dev.opera.com/articles/tags/open%20web/ for an overview.

I understand that HTML5 is out. One question is that, what can I use to create HTML5? Can I use CS5 to create HTML5? I'm sorry but I'm just trying it out on my own to create HTML5.
HTML 5 is not out. It is still a working draft specification.
If you follow the link, you will see on the right side - "working draft".
You can use any text editor to write HTML of any version. CS5 can also be used for it.
You can even use a notepad to write HTML5. You can also use Adobe CS5 (Dreamweaver) as your HTML editor. Adobe Dreamweaver CS5
HTML5Boilerplate should be a good start for you.
HTML5 is a work in Progress. Some of the features in HTML5 are implemented by most browsers, some are not implemented by any browser at all. So to really work with HTML5 you have to embed yourself into the technology and test it with different browsers.
My guess is, that it will take a long time until toolsuites like CS5 have a "fire and forget" mode for HTML5. For now you can't assume that anything automatically works.
hey read this online ebook dedicated to HTML5, nice one you will get whole idea about it many other knowledge
HTML5
I think it's better if you read a good introduction (maybe the best) on this topic, assuming you already know what html is.
