Hello,
I have a problem with the Event.observe method on IE.
When I use The Event.observe method, the key code that I retrieve from
the event,
is different if I use an inline function.
Here is the html code to test it (You must have prototype.js on the
same directory)
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>
Example
</title>
<script src="prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
//browser detection
function maskKeyPress(objEvent) {
var iKeyCode, strKey;
var strUserAgent =
navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
var isIE = strUserAgent.indexOf("msie") > -1;
if (isIE) {
iKeyCode = objEvent.keyCode;
} else {
iKeyCode = objEvent.which;
}
strKey = String.fromCharCode(iKeyCode);
alert("KeyCode = " + iKeyCode + "\nCharacter =" +
strKey);
}
window.onload = function ()
{
var field = document.forms[0].name1;
Event.observe(field, "keypress", maskKeyPress, true );
}
</script>
<style type="text/css">
body, p, td { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica;
font-size:
9pt; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Example</h1>
<p>For this example, try typing one of these characters ($,*,%,...)
into the 2 textboxes below. You will see an alert that displays the
character and the keycode corresponding to the key you pressed.
And the keyCode is different when using Event.observe</p>
<form name="tempForm" action="#">
<p><input type="text" name="name1" size="20"></p>
<p><input type="text" name="name2"
onkeypress="maskKeyPress(window.event);" size="20"></p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Have someone a idea of how to make it work?...
Thank you in advance.
