下方的例子监听了 HTMLMediaElement 标签的 play 事件,并且在事件触发后在控制台打印相应的信息。

Using addEventListener():

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

video.addEventListener("play", (event) => {
  console.log(
    "The Boolean paused property is now false. Either the " +
      "play() method was called or the autoplay attribute was toggled.",
  );
});

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

video.onplay = (event) => {
  console.log(
    "The Boolean paused property is now false. Either the " +
      "play() method was called or the autoplay attribute was toggled.",
  );
};
