I've recently learned that HTML5 now officially supports the <embed>
tag. With that in mind, is there any reason not to just use it to embed Flash content into HTML5? Would there be any browser issues or concerns if I did this?
I'm aware of SWFObject, but I'm trying to find a really simple and neat solution that doesn't rely on JavaScript.
Thanks.
Edit: My only concerns are: FF3, FF4, IE7, IE8, IE9, Chrome and Safari. Mobile users are not a consideration and I'm not streaming any video.
