How to programmatically call "play()" on an AudioJS element

audiojs.md

In reply to @bimbe_lien on Twitter.

AudioJS elements expose a player object, with a play() method that can be called programmatically—from outside of the element.

Try this:

1. Open http://jedfoster.com/AudioJS/ in your browser
2. Open the console and paste in this: document.body.querySelector(".tube-css audio").player.play();

Note that the AudioJS element is the <audio> tag.

So you to wire up an outside element you could do:

$('#outsideElement').click(function() { $('#audioPlayer').player.play(); });
