Any Way To Detect Certain Keys OnKeyDown?
May 14, 2010What I need is something as such (based on previous thread): I have a textfield and I want to limit the input to only numbers, letters and caps.
So the code is:
<input onkeydown="return testChars(event)" type="text" .../>
function testChars(e){
var keyCode = e.keyCode;
if(e.shiftKey && keyCode==53){
return false;
} //block "%"
//HERE BLOCK EVERYTHING THATS NOT a Letter, caps and numbers
if ( (keyCode > 64 && keyCode < 91) ||(keyCode > 96 && keyCode < 123) )//Letters and Caps{
return true;
}else if ( keyCode > 47 && keyCode < 58 )//numbers{
return true;
}}
The problem however using the onkeydown is that I would need to cater for every single possibility of them using SHIFT+1=*, SHIFT+2, SHIFT+3 etc. which would take forever. And I cant block Shift because they might use it for capitalizing letters.

Disable Up / Down Arrow Keys In Mozilla Firefox Browser
Aug 21, 2009I 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.
Using Arrow Keys To Navigate Around Inside An HTML Form?
Oct 9, 2009A 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.

All input fields in the form are single line text fields.
Search Box Autocomplete - Keyboard Selection Using Arrow Keys
Apr 26, 2010I 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?
Triggering Event Using Left And Right Arrow Buttons
Dec 18, 2010I want an event to be triggered when I use left and right arrow buttons like this:
Code:
$(document).keypress(function(e){
if (e.keyCode == 39 && key_pressOK) {
e.preventDefault();
$("#next").trigger('click');
key_pressOK = 0;
}});
This works on firefox, but not chrome, haven't even bothered checking the other browsers since it didn't even work on chrome.
JQuery :: Cycle Malsup - Get A Next/previous Arrow To Float Over The Right/left Edges Of A Slideshow Div
May 17, 2011I'm trying to get a next/previous arrow to float over the right/left edges of a slideshow div. I'm using to absolutely positioned divs to contain the next/previous buttons but for whatever reason they refuse to display above the slideshow div. Is there any way to get controllers to float over the cycle container?
Here's my code and if you give it a try you won't see the floating next/previous buttons unless you change the 'top' values for #next_btn and #prev_btn in the CSS to be greater than the height of the image (change to 410 to see them in my example):
<style>
#container {width: 500px;}
#container {position: relative;}
#next_btn {position:absolute; top:10px; right:5px;}

Dynamically Add (OnKeyDown) Event Listener
May 9, 2011I have a form with many, many, many 'input type="text"' elements in it. I'd like to be able to dynamically add an 'onKeyDown' event listener. Here's what I've got, so far (I know it's wrong.)
Code:
function addEventToElement(formName,tagName,typeName,eventName,eventAction) {
thisForm = (typeof formName == 'string') ? document.getElementById(formName) : '' ;
thisTag = (typeof tagName == 'string') ? tagName : '' ;
thisType = (typeof typeName == 'string') ? typeName : '' ;
thisEvent = (typeof eventName == 'string') ? eventName : '' ;
thisAction = (typeof eventAction == 'string') ? eventAction : '' ;
if(thisForm != "") { // If elements are in a form, make sure ONLY those elements are affected
elem = new Array(); elem = thisForm.getElementsByTagName(thisTag); // array of all items of [tag]
alert(elem.length);
if(thisType != "") {
for(j=0;j<elem.length;j++) {
if(elem[j].type != thisType) { elem.splice(j,1); } // If a type is specified, remove tags that do not have a type attribute
}
}
}
else { // Otherwise, any/all elements in a document/body will be affected
elem = new Array(); elem = document.getElementsByTagName(thisTag); // array of all items of [tag]
if(thisType != "") {
for(j=0;j<elem.length;j++) {
if(elem[j].type != thisType) { elem.splice(j,1); } // If a type is specified, remove tags that do not have a type attribute
}
}
}
if((thisEvent != "") && (thisAction != "")) {
for(i=0;i<elem.length;i++) { // All elements are picked - let's apply some attributes
document.getElementById(elem[i].id).addEventListener(thisEvent,thisAction,false)
}
}
}
HTML Code:
addEventToElement('form_name','input','text','keydown','return numbersOnly(event,this);');
