HTML5 is the fifth revision of the standard HTML which was officially issued by the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium). HTML5 is a markup language that serves to structure and display the contents of the world wide web. The goal of developing a HTML5 is to fix the HTML technology to provide support for multimedia technology. With HTML5, adding media like video or audio on the web application is simpler because unlike HTML4 should add plugins such as Flash and Silverlight to add multimedia support.Thus the use of HTML5 is expected to reduce the need for external plugins such as flash and others. While HTML5 has been updated from earlier versions of HTML, Web developers need to consider browser support and the difference in function between HTML5 and Flash.
