iPad html5 video with NO controls?

Question

This has been killing me all day, but I am not sure how to get a html5 video player working without the native controls.

I want no controls what-so-ever but if I don\'t

Answer 1

The best I can do is play the video as soon as the user touches the screen to do anything, even scroll down the page.

function playVideoNow(e)
{
    document.getElementById('video').play();
    document.removeEventListener('touchstart', playVideoNow);
}

document.addEventListener('touchstart', playVideoNow, false);
