How do I stop audio from continuing to play after removing video tag with jQuery?

autoplay, html, html5-video, jquery, video

Solution

Might be a little late, but I had the same issue and the above answer didn't worked for me (yes the tag was created by jQuery)

I got it working by using

jQuery('#myvideoTag').trigger('pause');

Problem

The audio keeps playing when I use the remove function to remove the video. This doesn't happen if I don't include autoplay as an attribute in the video tag. I tried different things and nothing seems to work. ``` //$("#video").pause(); //$("#video").stop(); $("#video").empty(); $("#video").remove(); ```
