How do I put HTML5 (Formerly Flash) into DreamWeaver?

Hey everyone,

With everyone starting to hate on Flash, and wanting their websites to be iPad-compatible, I'm very interested in converting my Flash objects to HTML 5.

I've tried two programs to convert: the one that Adobe gives out for free, and one called SWFDecompiler.

They both seem great - they get the job done. BUT, I am just so confused as to how I actually put these newly converted items INTO dreamweaver and INSIDE a specific page. Because when I convert, I get an output of a bunch of files, one being an html file which is the converted Flash. That's great, but how do I put that inside of a document in Dreamweaver?

I like how in DreamWeaver, you just go Insert > Media > Flash. Is there anything as simple as that?

Thanks for your help!

As far as I know there is nothing that turns flash actionscript files into html5 files? The best way to make your website from a flash site (why did you do that anyways) to an html5 site is to sit down and write the html5 code... Any SWF Decompilers are going to give you actionscript files, not html, and if they do give you html they're going to give the the html needed to make the flash file show on a web page....

I wouldnt rely on a program to do that.
Why is it flash?
Video use <video>
Audio use <audio>
A slideshow jquery
Photogallery use lightbox
Layout use html/css

A “decompiler“ wont give you the best results, it'll need to be specific to each swf.
