Detecting Any key pressed

[yahiko]

Hi,

In a menu state of mine, instead of pressing spacebar, I would like to let the player press any key to continue.

What would be the best way to detect if any key is pressed?

Well, pure javascript?

document.body.addEventListener('keypress', yourFunction);

Hmm, yes... But is there a way to do that in Phaser? without addEventListener?

[rockleaf99]

game.input.keyboard.onPressCallback = function(e){console.log("key pressed", e);}

This can be used to detect keyboard button presses. I would set it back to null when not at the menu screen so that it doesn't fire all the time.
