W3C SMIL Activities
SMIL is a language for describing audiovisual presentations on
the web.
SMIL
SMIL (Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language) was designed to enable multimedia presentations on the
web.
A SMIL
presentation can be composed of audio, video, images, text, and other media types.
You can read more about SMIL in our SMIL Tutorial.
HTML+TIME
HTML+TIME stands for Timed Interactive Multimedia Extensions for HTML. It is
a proposal for adding SMIL 1.0 timing and synchronization support to HTML.
HTML+TIME was submitted to the W3C by Microsoft, Macromedia, Compaq/Digital
and Digital Renaissance.
You can read more about HTML+TIME in our SMIL Tutorial.
HTML+SMIL
HTML+SMIL (a modification of HTML+TIME) was included in an early SMIL 2.0 Working
Draft.
When SMIL 2.0 became a W3C Recommendation, HTML+SMIL was removed from SMIL 2.0 and added as a separate
Working Draft named XHTML+SMIL.
XHTML+SMIL
XHTM+SMIL provides support for SMIL 2.0 functionality like animation, media,
timing, synchronization, and transitions directly in XHTML.
You can read more about XHTML+SMIL in our SMIL Tutorial.
