The following code does NOT work in Internet Explorer 6.0 but works
fine both in Opera 9 and Firefox2:
====================<script type="text/javascript"
defer="defer" src="js/prototype.js"></
script>
<script type="text/javascript" >
function checkKey(e)
{
if (e.keyCode == Event.KEY_UP)
{
alert(''up'');
}
if (e.keyCode == Event.KEY_DOWN)
{
alert(''down'');
}
}
Event.observe(window, ''load'', function() {
Event.observe(''id'', ''keydown'', checkKey);
});
</script>
Hi
<input type=''edit'' name=''n''
id=''id''>
====================
what can be done to make it work in Internet Explorer properly?

Re: keyboard events handling in internet explorer
Hey there,> what can be done to make it work in Internet Explorer properly?Perhaps changing the type= attribute to "text," which is a valid value? Untested, but first thing I''d change. -- Christophe Porteneuve aka TDD tdd-x+CfDp/qHev2eFz/2MeuCQ@public.gmane.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

IE doesn''t pass the (e) event object to event handlers automatically unless you are using Event.Observe to attach your handler (prototype way). You''ll need to go if(!e) e=window.event; But be aware this still isn''t cross browser because not all browsers that don''t pass (e) have window.event.

Event.observe hasn''t been mentioned in this thread - I''ve mentioned it in other threads, but you seem to have misunderstood my point. If you wish to discuss it I''m happy to do so, but only in the related thread so arguments retain their context. -- Rob --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

odd, it was another thread completely i replied to - i reply using gmail rather than groups, so it probably screwed up. I wouldn''t worry.
