In this course, author Chris Converse develops an interactive
video gallery for the web, working in a coding environment
using a combination of HTML5 with a Flash fallback, CSS, and
the open-source JavaScript library jQuery. The course shows
how to design the site layout and construct the code for a
player that works on multiple web browsers, platforms, and
mobile devices. Techniques to enable HTML5 video on Android
and ensure that older versions of Internet Explorer default
to Flash instead of HTML5 are also demonstrated. Exercise
files accompany the course.

Topics include:

* Preparing the graphics
* Adding and linking thumbnail buttons
* Designing the layout
* Adding jQuery and JavaScript
* Including video information in the thumbnail links
* Styling the thumbnails with CSS rules
* Creating a DIV container to hold the video player code
* Setting up click events for the thumbnails
* Incorporating the FancyBox lightbox plug-in
