Embedded video will not expand to full screen in LMS
Hi Marianna! I'm sorry the video block's fullscreen button doesn't work in your LMS. Since this is an LMS-related issue, you'll want to work with your LMS's support team for next steps. Perhaps you can share what Will outlined above with that team:
I have run into an issue where I have a course with an embedded video on a page that should have the capability to be shown full screen. However, clicking the button does not work. If I upload the course to a generic web server, the user can click the full screen button and it works without a hitch.
I think the problem is that online courses are displayed in an iframe by the LMS and that iframe does not have the allowfullscreen parameters included. All that needs to be fixed is to change this code below (in the page that launches online courses) from this:
<iframe id="activityFrame" title="Activity" frameborder="0" style="width:100%" src="/content/..."></iframe>to something like this
<iframe id="activityFrame" title="Activity" frameborder="0" style="width:100%" src="/content/..."
allowfullscreenwebkitallowfullscreenmozallowfullscreen
></iframe>
We are going to try this but why is this continually an issue and what are the precautions we can take as IDs to prevent this?
