Description
Adds a note to View Transitions API page that the transition is skipped if the page is hidden, small improvements to what it means for a page (document) to be hidden.
In parallel, the page visibility API has an example where the audio would auto-play when switching tabs, even if the user had no interaction with the media element before. This is not a good example to propagate, so we should gate the
audio.play()
call behind aplayingOnHide
boolean. It looks like this was raised in #26745, but we actually fixed a different example?Related issues and pull requests
