+<h2>Iframes</h2>
+
+<p>Since HTML5 video is used more and more, the &lt;embed&gt; tag is not the ideal way to share content. An emerging alternative is the &lt;iframe&gt; tag. With an iframe, it is possible to offer device-specific embed codes, while still keeping the code short. Example:</p>
+
+<pre>
+&lt;iframe 
+  src="http://example.com/videos/12345/" 
+  width="480" 
+  height="300" 
+  frameborder="0" 
+  scrolling="auto"
+&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
+</pre>
+
+<p>This example embeds an HTML file (<em>http://example.com/videos/12345/</em>) in a 480x300 pixels frame without borders or scrollbars. The HTML file itself can contain a full <a href="http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/jw-player-for-flash-v5/15995/jw-embedder-reference-guide">JW Embedder setup</a>, including fallbacks to various devices. If the player inside the HTML file is also 480x300 pixels, 
+users will not see the player is actually loaded into an iframe.</p>
+
+<p>In terms of redirecting the <em>12345</em> and doing the database lookup, this example can work exactly like the redirected &lt;embed&gt; example from the previous section.</p>
