I want to make a video start when clicking on an image. Is there any way I can do this using javascript/jQuery?

    Please show us what you have so far. SO is not a code writing service, and you will get a better response if you provide evidence of your own work. Please read the [ask] section in the help, and this [excellent article](http://whathaveyoutried.com). – freefaller Feb 26 '16 at 11:12

You should do this with HTML.

<video controls poster="/images/the-image-to-show.png">
  <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
  <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
  Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>

This will do the job just fine. Remember, "controls" gives you the default video controls. Play/pause/sound etc
