Hey,

I inserted in a Workflow an Explorer Box Tool to load a html-File.

The html in included html 5 code.

Example:

<video src="..\video\myvideo.mp4" autoplay controls>
the browser is not able to replay this video
</video>

After a call the html-code, I get the messeage withhin the Explorer Box Tool:

the browser is not able to replay this video

When I load the same html code in Firefox or IE it works fine.

Can not the Explorer Box Tool render Html 5?

Hi Mathias,

Have you tried to add a complete html declaration? I usually use this structure and its rendered correctly.

Like:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Title of the document</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    The content of the document......
    <video src="..\video\myvideo.mp4" autoplay controls>
     the browser is not able to replay this video
    </video>
   </body>
</html>

Let me know how it went.

Best,

_AG_

Hey _AG_,

thank you for your support

I forgot to insert <!DOCTYPE html> in my html source code.

Now it works fine in the Explorer Box tool.
