Fallback Image code

[william]

Hi
If I upload a animated banner to my website do I need to add code that falls back to a static image if the browser doesnt support html5, and if so does anyone know how to do this.
Thanks

I think it's been worked on:

Backup image from stage

Hi there, We’re using Hype since yesterday. We specialize in online banner production and we were wondering whether there is a function to export an HTML file with a backup/poster image. Since most ad serving programs require a backup image, this would help us a lot! In case there isn’t such a function, will this be implemented at some point in the future? Thanks! -Roy

However would this help, instead of detecting IE would this work for detecting HTML 5?

Automatic Fallback Image for Unsupported Browsers?

Hi there! In order to reduce file size I have removed support for IE6-9. I was wondering how you could automatically set a fallback/backup image (JPG/GIF) to display when an older or unsupported browser is detected? My understanding is it is not required for Double-click as you upload the fallback image separately (?), however, some providers seem to require this to be done at the banner level and I can’t seem to find anyway to go about it here. Would very much appreciate any assistance.

Also note that Hype supports a wide range of non-HTML5 browsers, from Internet Explorer 6 onwards. In general fallbacks are only required for users without javascript enabled (which is rare) or specific purposes (like ad networks).
