HTML5 is a new version of HTML and XHTML. The HTML5 draft specification defines a single language that can be written in HTML and XML. It attempts to solve issues found in previous iterations of HTML and addresses the needs of Web Applications, an area previously not adequately covered by HTML.
Due to the Apple’s ban for Flash components in Apple products like ipad, iphone , Smokescreen a open source project is developed in the aim of getting flash in browsers which supports HTML 5.
Smokescreen converts the flash into HTML and JavaScript which runs on HTML 5 supporting browsers.
The Smokescreen folks say that Web designers won’t have to learn anything new to make the conversion, it’ll just work. The source code is not released yet, but there are plenty of demos on smokescreen.us site.
As for now the main advantage of the HTML 5 and smokescreen is ‘ there is no need to install flash plug-in to make it work’ . HTLM 5 is expected with self centered browsing capabilities without any need of plug-ins to display or web application process etc.
