How can I add video to site background in HTML 5?



Add a button to play or pause the video. Then we have styled the video to a hundred percentage height and width so that it covers the entire background.

The following is the code snippet to set video as a site background in HTML5.

<video autoplay muted loop id = "myVideo">    <source src = "demo.mp4" type = "video/mp4">    Your browser does not support HTML5 video. </video>

The following is to pause the video −

function display() {    if (video.paused) {       video.play();       btn.innerHTML = "Pause the video!";    } else {       video.pause();       btn.innerHTML = "Play";    } }
