Multiple Videos

Question

let's say I have two or more videos on my page with HTML video tag, I found out that when I clicked both, both of them play...
and I want a situation whereby only one video will play at a time, when one is clicked the other will stop...
How can I use JavaScript for this?
please help
thanks

Answer 3

thank you guys
this helps
but I've not gotten what I want... I want a situation that when I play one video, let's say out of 5 videos, only that one will play and
if another video, say video4 is been clicked, video 1 will automatically pause without the user touching it...

Answer 4

gotcha!!!

Now i get it, Thanks guys
