Ok, you are right ^_^ Surely with Canvas (WebGL) can be created perfectly virtuals tours. I'll try to do some testing and I will comment on results. Rik good link ;), but would have to test how it behaves Canvas (WebGL) with hot spots. That is, for example when you have several rooms to visit:

Ok, thanks Tab Atkins. I fully understand the reasons for not adding tours to HTML5. I'll try to WebGL to see the power to create this type of functionality. Thanks, I feel that this proposal has not been helpful. 2012/6/25 Tab Atkins Jr. jackalm...@gmail.com On Mon, Jun 25, 2012 at 9:14 AM,
