I pointed out that HTML5 is an alternative publishing format to a SWF. Unlike SWFs, projects published as HTML5 will not only play on the Apple  iPad, iPhone and the iPod, but the lessons will retain any interactivity that you added to the slides (such as click boxes and buttons).

For SWF output you had the choice: it was possible to change the default setting which was to have a movie playing automatically after loading. Poster image.
