If you visit a site that uses Flash, and you don't have Flash installed on your browser, a message will be shown to you to install Flash. A similar procedure happens when Silverlight is involved instead of Flash.
What happens if a browser does not support HTML 5? Will I have to install something to get HTML 5 support in that case? Is that even possible?
It's compatible across browsers.HTML5 is supported by all the major browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, as well as iOS for Chrome and Safari and Android browsers. It can even work with the older and less popular browsers like Internet Explorer.
The new HTML 5 will provide a far better consistency in terms of HTML code which is used to design a web page thus making it easier to grasp the structuring of a web page for web designers and developers.
HTML5 supports in all modern except IE8 and it is not allowed for styling of unknown elements. If you have HTML5shiv then it provides the compatibility for IE Browsers older than IE 9.
A hypertext markup language (HTML) is the primary language for developing web pages. HTML5 is a new version of HTML with new functionalities with markup language with Internet technologies. Language in HTML does not have support for video and audio. HTML5 supports both video and audio.
Browsers will ignore elements it doesn't support and it won't apply css styles to those elements either. You won't get any explicit message that the browser doesn't support HTML5. You can, as the page author, provide your own message if the browser doesn't depending on the circumstance. You can, for example, provide a message that will display to the user inside a video or audio tag.
