The element is very much a proposal, as mentioned at the bottom of my original e-mail. This can still be aligned with other APIs. However, looking at http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/behaviors/reference/time2/elements/video.asp http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533477.aspx I'm not sure we want to integrate that given that it requires some kind of namespace support in text/html. The other thing is that 'mediacomplete' seems to require that the video is completely loaded first which is (a) not always something you want and (b) we have a 'load' event for that. It's not really clear to me how it differs much from SVG: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile12/multimedia.html#VideoElement In any case, if more alignment is needed that's certainly possible. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
