Hey Guys,
I’ve got a thumbnail on a webpage that when clicked, plays a video in fullscreen using the webkitEnterFullscreen() method.

But I need the video to stop playing once the users touches the “Done” button and leaves fullscreen mode.

Is there an event that fires once the the user has exited fullscreen?

Thanks,
Drew
