Space Bar Play/Pause Video

[Judboy (Jud)]

Is it possible to call on the space bar or Enter key via JavaScript to both play and pause a video on scene load? What code would I use to accomplish that function? Thanks!

Found this by using the term key events on this at the top of the forum page

Use key commands instead of "on click"

The code used is wrong and has a syntax error. Use this code for an “On Key Down” handler (not press - those don’t get non-character keys): var myAudio = document.getElementById("cChord"); event = event || window.event; var key = event.keyCode || event.which; if (key == 39) { if (myAudio.paused) { myAudio.play(); } else { myAudio.pause(); } }

Thanks so very much!

I used the Enter key, but could not find the key code for the spacebar.

Have you done a search for this any where?

Or better yet used the console to see what key is pressed when you log the key event.

How do I use the Console to see key codes?

Found the spacebar key code = 32.

@Judboy

How do I use the Console to see key codes?

So I was a little bored and a video would be too big to upload .
Have a look at this..
