Hi i'm looking for a piece of code that i could add to my squarespace membership page.
We have on demand videos and would like to have either a checkbox which saves once a member has viewed a video. Or a piece of code that recognises they have already watched a video and notify's them.

Is this possible?
I have coded the checkbox, but can't seem to get it to save.
see below

<input type="checkbox" name="viewed" value="viewed"> viewed

squarespace does not support PHP which would have made things simpler.
It does support Javascript.. Do you know how to use that?
I suggest JS and LocalStorage.

But check on squarespace forums to see if there is an easier way.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm a bit of a noob on JS and local storage. The forums i haven't been able to find anything as yet.

<video id="video" width="480" height="400" controls="true" poster="">
<source type="video/mp4" src="video.mp4"></source>
</video>

javascript
document.getElementById('video').addEventListener('ended', function(e) {
// Your code goes here
});

jquery
$('#video').bind('ended', function() {
// Your code goes here
});

Thanks for your reply. So if i was to add this to each video that is uploaded then each user would see that they've watched the video?

No! tysonven is using an ID in the video tag - You can only have one of these and you have a couple of video tags. And where the heavy lifting is done he has "// Your code goes here" leaving the coding up to you.
I suggest you move your site to a free provider that supports PHP. Read this and if you can do this stay on SS. If not use google to find another provider.
I used 000webhost for a number of years. Their is also AwardSpace, gigarocket, and freehosting.com
