Question

The below is for an HTML5 video player event.

My partner and I have been stumped for a very large portion of the day on this issue and hope someone can lend some insight on the issue. We have been able to access the progress event with plain js as seen below but when trying to access this with jQuery we get undefined in console. Any help/ recommendations are greatly appreciated.

    //JS - Works like a charm
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", init, false);
function init() {
    var v = document.getElementById('test-vid');
    console.log(v)
    v.addEventListener('progress', progress, false);
}
function progress(e) {
    console.log(e.lengthComputable + ' ' + e.total + ' ' + e.loaded);
}


    //  jQuery - NO BUENO - Undefined rendered in console
    var vid = $('#test-vid');
    $(vid).bind("progress", function(e){
            console.log(e.total + ' ' + e.loaded + ' ' + e.lengthComputable );

            });

Thanks in advance,

JN

Why not just use:

    $('video#test-vid').bind("progress",function(e){
        console.log(e.total + ' ' + e.loaded + ' ' + e.lengthComputable );
    });

This should work, jQuery should bind the events
