title="http://www.web3d.org/x3d/">The X3D Working Group</a> is participating in
the <a href="http://www.w3.org/html/wg/" title="http://www.w3.org/html/wg/">HTML
Working Group </a>for the purpose of best integrating X3D with HTML. This
effort has strategic importance for Web3D and indeed for all 3D graphics, since
X3D is an interchange format for a wide variety of models. We intend to
establish a solid foundation for X3D to properly support 3D graphics in HTML5. <br>
The X3D Working Group is considering three basic approaches to display an X3D
scene inside an HTML page: <br>
* External reference - HTML page includes an <a
href="http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#the-object-element "
title="http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#the-object-element ">object</a>
element tag that refers to an .x3d scene, implemented via an X3D plug-in. Data
might be passed within the page using DOM events. <br>
* X3D as XML in HTML -&nbsp; HTML page directly includes X3D source, likely
with an XML namespace prefix, presumably implemented via an X3D plug-in or the
browser itself. Again data might be exchanged within the page using DOM events.
<br>
* API access - HTML page includes some form of <a
href="http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#the-canvas-element"
title="http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#the-canvas-element">canvas</a>&nbsp;
(or maybe Canvas3D) element that allows programmatic access to the page, so
that X3D Scene Access Interface (SAI) might draw a bitmap <br>
Variations on these approaches are considered as part of <a
href="http://www.web3d.org/x3d/wiki/index.php/X3D_and_HTML5_examples"
title="http://www.web3d.org/x3d/wiki/index.php/X3D_and_HTML5_examples">X3D and
HTML5 examples</a> and the <a href="http://www.x3dom.org/"
title="http://www.x3dom.org/">X3DOM </a>test site . <br>
The X3D and HTML5 Summary will be presented at the HTML5 Working Group sessions
Friday, November 6 2009 from 9:00 AM -10:00 AM in Mountain View during the <a
