Thank you, everyone, but the whole thing is predicated on a
misunderstanding. I was sure that HTML5 allowed

  <video>
    <source src=3D"video.webm"/>
    <source src=3D"video.mp4"/>
    <source src=3D"image.png"/>
  </video>

But it does not. You can only put video sources in a video tag, no
images. What you often see, and I must have been remembering, is:

  <video>
    <source src=3D"video.webm"/>
    <source src=3D"video.mp4"/>
    <img src=3D"image.png"/>
  </video>

But that only works in browsers that don=E2=80=99t understand the video tag=
 *at
all*.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
