Summary: Clarify text in media element user interface section
Product: HTML WG
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows NT
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: HTML5 spec (editor: Ian Hickson)
AssignedTo: ian@hixie.ch

In the section at[1] the text states the following:
"If the attribute is present, or if scripting is disabled for the media
element, then the user agent should expose a user interface to the user."
Does this mean if I'm creating a custom media element control, I can safely
leave the controls attribute off the media element? That if the user has
disabled JavaScript (which would disable my custom control), the user agent is
supposed to automatically expose this user interface?
Right now, I'm assuming if I want to do a custom control for a video element, I
add the controls attribute to the element, and then in code, remove the
attribute.
If I understand this section correctly, though, the browsers should
automatically detect if JavaScript is disabled and provide this user interface
by default.
Please clarify in this section exactly what is supposed to happen.
