Examples

These examples add an event listener for the HTMLMediaElement's suspend event, then post a message when that event handler has reacted to the event firing.

Using addEventListener():

const video = document.querySelector("video");

video.addEventListener("suspend", (event) => {
  console.log("Data loading has been suspended.");
});

Using the onsuspend event handler property:

const video = document.querySelector("video");

video.onsuspend = (event) => {
  console.log("Data loading has been suspended.");
};
