Youtube Space=Pause

Pressing space when watching a video on Youtube will always pause the video instead of functioning like Page Down key.

For some reason, it sometimes doesn't work, but I made a small change and now it works. The small change is replacing the checking if the keyCode is 32, with checking if the keyCode is either 32 or 'Space'. Here is the resulting code, for the main function:

window.addEventListener('keydown', function(e) {
    var playButton = document.querySelector('button.ytp-play-button');
    var isKey1 = e.keyCode === 32; // Space
    var isKey2 = e.keyCode === 'Space'; // Space
    var validTarget = e.target === document.body || e.target === document.querySelector('#player-api');
    if (validTarget && (isKey1 || isKey2) && playButton) {
        e.preventDefault();
        playButton.click();
    }
});

THANKS, NOW WORK!
