RE: keyboard accessible video player

Hi Sam,

Many thanks for the suggestion. It looks promising.

I went to http://mediaelementjs.com/ which appears to contain an example of
the player and I tried it with the keyboard and three browsers using Windows
7.

With IE 9 it appears to work fine although the keyboard got trapped a couple
of times.

With Firefox 15 and Chrome 22 it seems to work fine.

With all the browsers however, I found that when the display of the controls
turned off it could be difficult to get them back.

Thanks,
Roger

Mr. Hudson,

As Mr. Bennett points it, having choices is usually a good thing.
Hopefully this third suggestion won't be one to many!
