The seeking
event is fired when a seek operation starts, meaning the Boolean seeking
attribute has changed to true
and the media is seeking a new position.
This event is not cancelable and does not bubble.
SyntaxUse the event name in methods like addEventListener()
, or set an event handler property.
addEventListener("seeking", (event) => { })
onseeking = (event) => { }
Event type
A generic Event
.
These examples add an event listener for the HTMLMediaElement's seeking
event, then post a message when that event handler has reacted to the event firing.
Using addEventListener()
:
const video = document.querySelector("video");
video.addEventListener("seeking", (event) => {
console.log("Video is seeking a new position.");
});
Using the onseeking
event handler property:
const video = document.querySelector("video");
video.onseeking = (event) => {
console.log("Video is seeking a new position.");
};
