Hmm, yes.  I'm not sure just preview is a good idea though, if people want to share them they should be able to.  Won't it just be annoying to be able to preview the html version but not be able to use it properly if your project is working ok in it?

am just worried people will deploy with HTML5 links and then they remain in the system?

You could make a HTML5 preview option only?

In the long run yes, but at the moment with the first release there are going to be quite a lot of page types missing so if we just do a detection on what the browser supports then there's a good chance most things will use the html version but not all pages will work.

<thoughts>
I don't think this is a good idea, it makes more sense to have a play.php which negotiates with the device to see what can be displayed?

Yes, commit it please. That's on my to do list so if you've already done it that's great.

Thanks

Hi Fay/all
I noticed that Julian had committed an update to allow Ctrl  + Click html5 preview from the editor and also I know part of the 1.9 plans is to enable either the play_html5 link or auto detection or both but as a temporary measure for testing xenith development etc I had already been testing enabling a second play link in the properties window and I've uploaded this to the Techdis install for now but could commit the code if you want?

This involved a small addition to url_library.php and properties_library.php and well as properties_library.inc for the language string.

Have a look at the Techdis install and let me know if you want me to commit these additions?

For the moment I haven't duplicated the embed code box for the html5 version.

HTH
Ron
