How to use embed tag in html5?
Let's try to understand the <embed> tag with an example.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<html>
<head>
<title> Example of embed tag </title>
</head>
<body>
<h1> My favorite song </h1>
<embed src = "/media/video/FileName" height = "400" width = "500">
</body>
</html>
In the above example, a video file has been added to the webpage by using the <embed> tag. The height and width of the video file will be 400 and 500 respectively.
HTML5 <noembed> Tag
All browsers don’t support <embed> tag. You can use <noembed> tag for such browsers. This tag is used within the <embed> tag.
If <embed> tag does not support any browser, then with this tag you can show an image in that browser rather than that media file. Let's try to understand it with an example.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<html>
<head>
<title> example noembed tag </title>
</head>
<body>
<embed src = "/media/videos/FileName" height = "400" width = "500">
<noembed src = "/media/images/photo.jpg">
