<p>In this example, we assign an "ontimeupdate" event to a video element. When the user starts to play the video, or skips to a new position in the video, a function is triggered, which will display the current position (in seconds) of the video playback.</p>
<video controls ontimeupdate="myFunction(this)">
<source src="mov_bbb.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="mov_bbb.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
</video>
<p>Playback position: <span id="demo"></span></p>
<script>
function myFunction(event) {
// The currentTime property returns the current position of the audio/video playback
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = event.currentTime;
}
</script>
