OT: Using Javascript to disable backspace key with exception
I am using Javascript to disable backspace key. It works fine. The only
problem is that I need to have the backspace key functional for only one
field on my form.
Here is the current script I am using:
-
function checkShortcut()
{
if(event.keyCode==8 || event.keyCode==13)
{
return false;
}
}
-
How can I modify this script to include backspace for my one textbox?
Thanks in advance!!

event.fromElement wiil give you the object which generated the
event. Test for that being the input you want to allow backspace
in and block it in all other cases.

Re: OT: Using Javascript to disable backspace key with exception
You are calling this function onKeyDown right? Just leave the function
call out on the textarea you don't want to trap the backspace key on.
Also event.which is NS4's version of event.keyCode. If you do a little
object detection you can make this script work cross browser...
if (document.all)
keyPressed = event.keyCode;
if (document.layers)
keyPressed = event.which
