You don't, except when clicks on the controls have an effect (e.g. 'play' for play). It may be the case that the change is suboptimal especially now that some browsers make the whole video a big play/pause button. I'm open to alternative solutions that would make Philip's example trivial to implement correctly for authors and still allow authors to be notified of clicks on the controls. For instance, I can imagine exposing a property on the click event that tells whether the user clicked on the controls, and maybe even what was being clicked (as a string). <video onclick="if (controlsTarget == null) { if (paused) play(); else pause(); }" ...></video> -- Simon Pieters Opera Software
