Can't get this local file to show up as a browser source correctly

[robeyworks]

Yo, I whipped up this little web app to display a few inputs on-screen but when I insert it into OBS as a browser source the inputs aren't showing up as they should. Anyone know how I might be able to fix it? The file works in my actual browser but not in the browser source. If you want to see the app you can download the attached zip and open "index.html" or just check it out here.

You will need to right click and "Interact" with the source if you want to send keypresses to it.

Oof, is there a way to get around this? Sources like https://gamepadviewer.com/ don't require this, is it just because its not keyboard input? Was hoping to have it active while tabbed into another application.

I don't think there's a way around this. Browsers do not allow an unfocused window to receive keyboard input or any webpage could act like a keylogger.

That makes a lot of sense actually, I didn't think of this. I'll look for another method of displaying the inputs then I suppose. Thanks for the information!
