Coding HTML5 page for use in iPad Mobile Safari that has tag for embedding

  • 0

Coding HTML5 page for use in iPad Mobile Safari that has tag for embedding video file. Using CSS3 media queries to determine orientation of iPad, which works fine.

Now need to change the src of the video tag depending on orientation. In other words, there are two videos, one sized to work in landscape view and one to work in portrait view.

Any advice on how to approach this problem? I’m sure it’s something pretty simple, but I can’t seem to get it to work.

    I’d just insert the video tag using javascript, after it’s looked at the document width and figured out the orientation.
