Controls: Close X collapses ad 100% when clicked, with "show ad" button available that expands ad upon click.

Video must include: Play, Pause, Mute (volume control to zero (0) output may be included instead of or in addition to Mute control)

The expanding ad should remain in the DIV that it is loaded in. This is even when the ad expands outside of the IFrame. It allows the AJAX ad calls to clear the ad by clearing the DIV. If the expanding ad must create code outside of the DIV, such as adding itself to the BODY tag, then it must monitor the DIV it should have stayed in. When the DIV is cleared, it should automatically eliminate any code it created outside of the DIV. As mentioned earlier, the ads must have no “document.write” elements except inside the IFrame itself.
