Rails spinoffs - Dec 2007 - capturing arrow keypress on IE7 with Prototype 1.6 doesn't work?

Hi!
does anyone know a fix for this?
in FF and Opera everything is fine, but in IE7 arrow keys are ignored.
thank you

How exactly are you capturing them?

document.observe(''keypress'', keyManager);
function keyManager(event)
	{
	var key = event.which || event.keyCode;
	alert(key);
..........................

this returns the correct values for pretty much every key, except the
right part of the keyboard.
pressing arrows, or page up/down does not trigger/retyrn anything.
any clues?
