I want to see if the alt key and j(or any other number or letter) key are being pressed at the same time.
Here's what I have so far:
document.onkeydown = function(e) {
if(e.altKey && e.keyPressed == "j") {
console.log("alt + j pressed")
}
}This isn't working.
Any help on this?
You should be getting the event's key property instead:
document.onkeydown = function(e) {
if(e.altKey && e.key == "j") {
console.log("alt + j pressed")
}
}Maybe it works
var altKeyPressed = false;
document.addEventListener("keydown", function(e) {if(e.altKey) {
altKeyPressed = true;
}});
document.addEventListener("keydown", function(e) {if(e.key === "j" && altKeyPressed) {
console.log("alt + j pressed");
altKeyPressed = false;
}});
That's because a KeyboardEvent does not have a keyPressed property. There is a key property that indicates which key was pressed.
