Further to this - the thickbox is an iframe and when the iframe has
focus (e.g. if you highlight some text) the esc button does not work.
If you then click on the header (where the esc text is) then click
escape it works. So I have added the following code to my $
(document).ready(function(){}); :
$(this).keydown(function(e){
if (e == null) { // ie
keycode = event.keyCode;
} else { // mozilla
keycode = e.which;
}
if(keycode == 27){ // close
top.tb_remove();
}
});
which is almost the same as the code in the thickbox. This solves the
problem, at least on FF3 on OS X!!
Hope this may prove useful for someone else.
Cheers,
Dave
