i wish it were documented succinctly somewhere...
so anyway when i build for html5, i was expecting then i could do
#if html5
but that didn't work so looking at the build.hxml it appears to be
#if web
and looking at my old code it sees like long ago it was
#if target_html5
i think i wish it was just the same thing that was told to the invocation of nme, e.g. in this case just "html5".

Re: -D targets are confusing
oh wait, maybe i'm getting it (again,maybe)
there are 2 parts to the build process:
(1) the target given to nme command line e.g. html5 or flash.
(1a) that passes things like "target_html5" or "target_flash" into the nme.nmml context.
(2) invoking the haxe compiler.
(2a) this gets things if they were defined in nme.nmml, but if they weren't "chained" through then they are dropped and can't be used for #if's.

Re: -D targets are confusing
hm but target_html5 doesn't seem to be happening?
i wish i knew how to see what the command line invocation of nme is passing into nme.nmml.

Re: -D targets are confusing
For HTML5 you get 'js' defined:
#if js
I agree it's a bit confusing and they should also define 'html5'

Re: -D targets are confusing
I just tried the following:
nme display LazOr.nmml html5 -nmml
And I notice that html5, target_html5 and web variables are all being set to 1.
Hope this helps, apparently you can do this for any target you want.
Still seems that there are some flags missing, since I'm using an "# if iphone" on my code, which is working, but I can't see it on the output of the command above. But I can see them if I run
nme display LazOr.nmml ios -hxml

Re: -D targets are confusing
Here are the defines:
Languages
cpp, neko, js, flash
Targets
windows, mac, linux, ios, android, blackberry, webos, flash, html5
Environments
desktop, web, mobile
These should all come through in your Haxe code, but when processing NMML, only the target and environment defines will be present, if I remember correctly.
You should be able to check based on your desired platform, but the more general environment defines are there to help determine how an application should act whether it is online, or on a mobile device... and sometimes this can be different for the same target. For example, the development builds of NME are able to publish HTML5 applications to mobile platforms. In this case, you may have "html5", "blackberry" and "mobile" all defined.
By default, a mobile application will be fullscreen (unless you have overwritten it with your own <window width="" height="" /> NMML tag), but a web or desktop application defaults to 640 x 480. So this means that an HTML5 application for mobile defaults to the size of the device, while it defaults to a different size when it is running in a browser.
Please let me know if NME is working differently than I've tried to describe above, and if there are any changes you think we could or should make to improve the system
