#Html5 video player style full#
Note that when making the video full screen we use requestFullscreen, webkitRequestFullscreen or msRequestFullScreen based on what the current browser supports. This includes a play button, the timeline as a range element, a sound element to mute and unmute the video, and a full-screen button.įirst, we'll add styling for the container of the controls. We'll first add the video inside a div element, which will be the container for the video element and the controls: The video is from W3Schools and the icons are from Heroicons. You can find the full video player at the end of this section. We'll start first with the styling then move on to the JavaScript. When creating a custom player, that means we also have to add the wiring in JavaScript to make sure all the video functionalities are added to the video. Creating a custom video player guarantees that the video looks the same on all browsers, rather than our styling being supported by some browsers and not others.
