Does anybody know why doesn't onkeypress catch up/down arrow keys
while it catches left/right arrows? My only supposition is that up/
down keys are used for moving between form elements, anyway does
anybody know any solution to this problem?
I have a little problem that i hope can be solved. You start to type in an <input> field and a list of results show based on what you type, I have a list of Airports in MySQL that is check for LIKE of what is typed in and the matches show that can be selected. But you can only scroll with the mouse and not the arrow keys.
Does anyone know how I may allow arrow keys as well as the mouse to select their choice?
Disable Arrow Keys I am creating an online flash gaming site, Aaron's Game Zone: [URL]Some of the games on it use the arrow keys, however IE also uses them to scroll the page. I am learning JavaScript and am trying to write some script to pervent the page scrolling up and down while playing a game.For example.Guardian Rock uses the arrow keys to slide around, at the same time the page scrolls.[URL]
Here is the script I've tried to write to pervent the scrolling:
<script type="text/javascript">
function KeyPressHappened(e){
if (!e) e=window.event;
[code]....
Can someone help me get started on some browser-independent code for moving an image with the arrow keys? That is, if I press the up arrow, the image will move 10 pixels up; if I press the left arrow, the image will move 10 px left.

I have three buttons on a typical page (sample page: [URL].. One goes to the previous page, one to the next, and one up a level. Can I link these buttons to 3 arrow keys to simplify navigation for the user? I thought this would be a common task, but I cannot find any canned code on the web to do it. I can code simple html, but don't know javascript.

I got this problem while disabling Up/Down arrow keys in Mozilla firefox browser useing javascript Given a standard HTML select/option box, I can capture any keypress while the select has focus and stop the select�s option list from changing values in IE but not in Mozilla.
[Code]....
In IE and Mozilla I have no trouble capturing the keyCode, and in IE I can prevent pressing a letter "D" and Up/Down arrows from making the list move to Dead, but the select list will drop to �Dead� in Mozilla. I've tried attaching the event handler to keyup, keydown and keypress, but have yet to find a way in Mozila to capture the keypress and prevent the select list from changing the current selection.
A client would like me to implement spreadsheet-style form traversal using the arrow keys on a keyboard, i.e. left arrow would submit the entry for that field and then move left by one field on the form.
The form is managed by my PHP code. Does anyone have a browser-independent method of doing this please?
All input fields in the form are single line text fields.
I am implementing an "auto complete search box" much like the one Google uses. If you notice on Google, if you type a letter and the drop down box appears with the predicted terms, you are able to navigate in and select from those terms using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
In my implementation, the drop down box is really just a DIV. It is separate from the search box. How do I replicate the Google behavior?
I am trying to setup a textbox to only accept specific keys. The problem is, some of the Function keys are reading as the same values as letters.Ex.
112 - F1 - p
113 - F2 - q
114 - F3 - r[code]....
Is there another way to allow the function keys without enabling all matching letters as well?
I am making a php/mysql epos system for my shop which will be run from a browser on my shop PC. I have large buttons which I would like to be able to 'click' by pressing something like the F-buttons at the top of the keyboard. Is it possible to override the standard button shortcuts for a web page. This is only going to be on my shop computer so accessibility is not a problem.

I have included a file below that tests onKeyPress in Opera 7.11. I am
getting peculiar behavior. When the file is first loaded, pressing the
keypad + causes the textarea to get physically larger on the screen, and
pressing the keypad - causes the textarea to get physically smaller. I
click on the scrollbar then this behaviour stops and subsequent
keystrokes are displayed appropriately. Is this some kind of bug in
Opera 7.11? Code:
I want a form text field in which when I type OK, the browser window should automatically redirect to GOOGLE.COM & when I type some other thing it show me alert. I'm using onKeyPress but it only let me type "O" any idea how to control all this???

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on a AJAX autocomplete script and the autocomplete is working, but I would like to add some more functionality to by adding navigation through the list with the UP and DOWN arrow keys. I seem to have the javascript working where when I press down one of the arrow keys it seems to change the className, but it immediately will change the className back to the original className.
Code:
document.onkeypress = KeyCheck;
var HighlightSelection = -1;
function KeyCheck(e){

I know that the function "setHighlightSelection" is very basic, but it's being used for testing purposes.

In part of this project, I am create a dynamic table row that contains a dynamic textbox in one of its cells. When the textbox is created, I try to attach an onkeypress event and it only works in IE. I feel like I'm missing some fundamental piece here, and am pulling my hair out because of it :mad:. I feel like i've tried everything possible to even get firefox to read this code.
//----- WHERE THE TEXTBOX is CREATED -----//
var cellProd = row.insertCell(2);
var txtProdQuant = document.createElement('input');

I have a web page where I want to intercept keypress events in an INPUT-tag
and check if it is the Enter key, which calls another function that executes
a search. My code runs on Netscape 7 for Windows, IE 6 for Windows and IE5.1
for Mac, but not on Netscape 7 for Mac. When I press the Enter key, the
event gets caught but it does not get prevented and the search is never
executed.
The code looks like this:
function KeyDownHandler(e)
{
// if not Netscape, get IE event
if ( !e )
e = window.event;
if ( !e )
return true;
// Get valid ascii character code
var key = typeof e.keyCode != 'undefined' ? e.keyCode : e.charCode;
// process only the Enter key
if (key == 13)
{
// cancel the default submit
if (e.preventDefault)
e.preventDefault();
else
window.event.returnValue=false;
// submit the form by programmatically searching
search();
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
