The video tag in HTML 5 is really fascinating. I need to know whether it is possible to let users toggle full screen play. I dont wanna use any other video plugin. I just need to use the video tag. So is this possible. Please help me out....
You can use the following code to create a button that will take the video into full screen mode.
Javascript code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function goFullscreen(id) {
var element = document.getElementById(id);
if (element.mozRequestFullScreen) {
element.mozRequestFullScreen();
} else if (element.webkitRequestFullScreen) {
element.webkitRequestFullScreen();
}
}
</script>
Html code:
<video class="video_player" id="player" width="100%" controls="controls" autoplay="autoplay">
<source src="INPUT VIDEO URL HERE"/>
Your browser does not support the HTML5 video tag. Use a better browser!
</video>
<button onclick="goFullscreen('player'); return false">
View Fullscreen!
</button>
