title: How to add video into a webpage for mobile web browsers
body: <p>Our company is making a mobile version of our website. We have several product videos we want to show on the mobile version.</p>
  
  <p>When I try to use </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="video.wmv"&gt;video&lt;/a&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get sound playing but a black screen on my htc incredible android os phone.</p>
  
  <p>I'm thinking that the video is playing but in a different browser window. I need it to display all in one window without having to switch to a different window.</p>
  
  <p>I tried the html embed tags and get no video or sound at all, from what I've read these tags are not very realiable cross browser.</p>
  
  <p>I also just tried the html5 video tags below. I get an icon identifying that it's a video file but it doesn't play.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;video src="video.wmv" controls="controls"&gt;
        your browser does not support the video tag
  &lt;/video&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a special format the video file needs to be in? Should I be using the href or embed tags, what other options do I have?</p>
  
  <p>If it helps to know, I'm using the mobile doctype on my webpages.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
