Is there a way to play an MP4 (or another format that I can convert to and that my customers can see on their IPads and Iphones) video on my coffee cup HTML editor website without converting it to flash, which said customers cannot view on said devices? If not, it seems like that is an opportunity waiting to happen because I would probably buy a program or update that would let me show my non-flash videos on all my customers' devices. Thanks for any help!

That is just one option. HTML will play a variety of video formats, for FREE. Just do a google search and you'll find a few I'm sure. :cool:

Under HTML5, you can have a bare bones video player using just this code:

<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>

Using a third-party player (e.g. like the one Gunsmoke mentioned) will add skins and playlists, etc...

A simple way is to use YouTube and embed code.
