Operation of the video element
The <video> element in HTML is used to embed videos directly into a web page.
By using it, you can add video controls, such as play, pause, and volume adjustment, to provide users with an interactive experience while watching the content.
It is advisable to always include the width and height attributes when using the <video> element.
These attributes define the dimensions of the video on the page, helping to prevent the page from flickering while the video is being loaded. This contributes to a smoother presentation of the content.
Additionally, the <video> element allows the inclusion of multiple video formats using the <source> tag. This functionality is useful as different browsers may support distinct video formats.
The browser will choose the first recognized format, ensuring broader compatibility.
The text inserted between the <video> and </video> tags will be displayed only in browsers that do not support the <video> element.
This provides a text alternative for environments that cannot play videos, ensuring that the message is still conveyed.
