problem with code please help

[callidus]

I'm trying to have my sprite jump, and the conditions are if he is on the floor and if I'm pressing the up key. But he wont jump even when he's on the floor. When taking "player.body.touching.down" out of the code the sprite jumps so I'm assuming something in my code is interfering with hit detection between the player and the ground.

 

Here is the code: 

(I have coloured the part of the code which I assume is the problem and anything that is relevant green)

Any help is greatly appreciated

 

var game = new Phaser.Game(800, 600, Phaser.CANVAS, 'phaser-example', { preload: preload, create: create, update: update,});

var rightCounter = 0;

var leftCounter = 0;

var score = 0;

var scoreText;

var obstacles;

var highScore = 0;

var highScoreText;

var x = 50;

var y = -50;

 

function preload() {

cursors = game.input.keyboard.createCursorKeys(); //allows keyboard input
