Q:

HTML Video on Removing and Re-Adding to DOM

I'm using Jquery to remove an element from the DOM temporarily. This element contains an HTML5 video element. Upon re-adding the said element to the DOM. the video is no longer able to play, and the element displays as blank/white, as opposed to displaying the first frame of the video when it was first loaded.
Any explanations as to why this may be? and any suggestions?

A:

tried running .load() on the video after appending it to the DOM and it worked!
