HTML5 instead of flash?

Is it possible to redo the flash tease editor to allow the making of HTML5 scripts instead of flash? That would allow flash-like teases that could be viewed on Apple devices like iPhones and iPads...

Haha... If you're into web development, it's a rather interesting to look at the suggestion from an outside perspective. Just all the drama going on between Apple and Adobe. Anyways, I think there are far more people with browsers in use that can't support the HTML5 standard right now if the flash was dropped in favor of the few people trying to view the teases on their iphones and ipads.

Just to clarify, when cactusman was suggesting HTML5 he meant JavaScript using HTML5 features.

The choice is between HTML5/JavaScript, Flash/ActionScript and perhaps Silverlight/.NET. The only truly open platform is HTML5 and that openness is a strong argument.

it's interesting that you are working on it already and I applaud that. I didn't know about the technical details.

Me neither, apparently now!
