Nothing at all other than placing some emphasis on the word phrased. Never heard of "scare quotes"... So, again (without the "scare quotes"): how would you have phrased it? > >> Basically I would like a button (like the flash/kill flash button on >> Prefbar) to enable me to turn off HTML5 *completely*, and to turn it >> back on should I care to. > > Do you really understand what HTML 5 is ? You cannot turn off > a dialect of HTML; you get (when you visit a site) whatever > dialect of HTML each page is written in; you can no more turn > off HTML than you can turn off a Bronx accent (unless, of course, > you are the speaker). Obviously I didn't understand HTML5 (BTW it is HTML5, not HTML 5 [1]) with regards to "HTML5 Video": https://www.youtube.com/html5 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5_video https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5 However, my reply back to you was regarding your statement: "and have all YouTube videos delivered in Flash." (double scare quotes). I think that is pretty obvious even though you so conveniently cut: > No. I mentioned nothing about having all YouTube videos delivered in Flash: > <quote> It would have been nice had the 'HTML5' (scare quotes) experts actually pointed out to me that what I was actually looking for was/is the ability to turn of WebM in SeaMonkey. Anyway I've figured it out & hopefully it will help others who wish to do the same.
