What I want to do is load a specific video source when navigated to from another page. Any ideas?

I can change the source using the following code if already on my video page:

<aonclick="document.getElementsByTagName('video')[0].src ='/Videos/2012-06-007-invite-us-to-testify-1300k-eng.mp4'">Video1</a>

I have tried using href with that code and it doesn't work.

<a href="/pages/Video/video.html" onclick="document.getElementsByTagName('video')[0].src ='/Videos/2012-06-007-invite-us-to-testify-1300k-eng.mp4'">Video1</a>

Hello,

Do you mean to load video('/Videos/2012-06-007-invite-us-to-testify-1300k-eng.mp4') after navigating to new page(video.html)? If this is the case, you need manipulate video src in video.html rather than before navigation. I would like to suggest you treat the video path as parameter and pass it to video page. About how to passing parameters during navigation in windows 8 , you can check method in the following link:

Hope this helps, thanks.
