What is HTML5 Video?
HTML5 is a set of web standards being developed by the "Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group"
The HTML5 standard includes many new features for more dynamic web applications and interfaces. One such component being specified and implemented is the <video> element.
HTML5 is currently under development as the next major revision of the HTML standard. Like its immediate predecessors, HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.1, HTML5 is a standard for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. The new standard incorporates features like video playback and drag-and-drop that have been previously dependent on third-party browser plug-ins such as Adobe Flash, Microsoft Silverlight, and Google Gears.
