it doesn't matter what the method is because the module handles it, so
you can call it what you want.I'd call it HTML5 so the url is at least
a bit explainable

 Howdy

 I personally think you need to run everything through the same page,
with parameters. Its the only way you can prevent worsening the
situation 12 months down the line where we have many deployed play
urls which have to be maintained... Plan to deprecate play_html5 and
then people can rewrite that page to your main play.php page with
method=html or even duplicate the main play.php file as play_html5 if
they must.

 Begs the question - should we drop references to html5 and just call
it html - what happens if they release html6 in a few years?

 Could we use the following URL structure?

 Can the play URL be

 Play.php?template_id=560
 And
 Play.php?template_id=560&method=HTML

 And not playhtml.php?
