A generic Event
.
These examples add an event listener for the HTMLMediaElement's playing
event, then post a message when that event handler has reacted to the event firing.
Using addEventListener()
:
js
const video = document.querySelector("video"); video.addEventListener("playing", (event) => { console.log("Video is no longer paused"); });
Using the onplaying
event handler property:
js
const video = document.querySelector("video"); video.onplaying = (event) => { console.log("Video is no longer paused."); };
