"onabort" attribute : defines script for when loading aborts

The onabort attribute defines a script to be run if the loading of the media file aborts.

This event occurs when the media data download has been aborted, and not because of an error.

The onabort attribute is part of the event attributes, and can be used on the following elements: <audio>, <embed>, <img>, <object>, <video>.

Events that occur when some disruption comes in the media loading process, are: onemptied, onerror, onstalled, onsuspend
