HTML5 video seeking

Question

How can I get my video player to skip/seek to a certain time. I have had a go at this and it works when the page first loads (In Chrome) but not in any other browser. I also have a flash fallback which could be a pain, but for now the priority is the HTML side of things The major issue is that it doesn't work outside Chrome! EDIT: This now works in IE9, Chrome and Firefox. However, not with the flash fallback! Below is my attempt so far. I'm using the following JS so far: ``` ``` Which links to the following: ```

Accepted Answer

```
seekToTime:function( value )
{
    var seekToTime = this.videoPlayer.currentTime + value;
    if( seekToTime < 0 || seekToTime > this.videoPlayer.duration ) 
        return;

this.videoPlayer.currentTime = seekToTime;
}
```

This is the seek function we are using. It's in MooTools syntax, but you'll get the point. Hope it helps.
