The cuechange
event fires when a TextTrack
has changed the currently displaying cues. The event is fired on both the TextTrack
and the HTMLTrackElement
in which it's being presented, if any.
On this page
HTMLTrackElement: cuechange event
Syntax
Use the event name in methods like addEventListener()
, or set an event handler property.
js
addEventListener("cuechange", (event) => {});
oncuechange = (event) => {};
Event type
A generic Event
with no added properties.
Examples
The underlying TextTrack
, indicated by the track
property, receives a cuechange
event every time the currently-presented cue is changed. This happens even if the track isn't associated with a media element.
If the track is associated with a media element, using the <track>
element as a child of the <audio>
or <video>
element, the cuechange
event is also sent to the HTMLTrackElement
.
js
let textTrackElem = document.getElementById("texttrack");
textTrackElem.addEventListener("cuechange", (event) => {
let cues = event.target.track.activeCues;
});
Alternatively, you can use the oncuechange
event handler:
js
let textTrackElem = document.getElementById("texttrack");
textTrackElem.oncuechange = (event) => {
let cues = event.target.track.activeCues;
};
