title: HTML5 Video Element on iPad doesn't fire onclick or touchstart events?
body: <p>I'm trying to attach some events to an HTML5 Video element inside my iPad web app but they don't seem to be firing? I've tested this both on the device and in the simulator and get the same results. The events however (for the onclick at least) work fine in desktop Safari. I've also tried swapping the video element for a div and the events fire fine? Has anybody else come across this and have an idea for a work around?</p>
