try this:
$('.ryu"').bind('keydown', function(e) { if(e.keyCode== "x"){ //do something $(".ryu-still").hide(); $(".ryu-cool").show(); } }); good luck

you need to catch to see if the key being pressed is the right one
$(document).ready(function () { $(".ryu").on('keydown',function(e){ if(e.which==88){ //88 = x key $(".ryu-still").hide(); $(".ryu-cool").show(); } }); }); jsfiddle or it didnt happen http://jsfiddle.net/u3uo7eLn/2/
