I'm trying to set up some script to respond to onkeypress events on the window object. I want to respond to the window event instead of a textbox event because I'm trying to enable Excel-like nagivation between for elements using the arrow keys. The following works in Firefox, but not IE:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Untitled Page</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="MicrosoftAjax.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function testkeypress()
{
alert("keypress event detected!");
}
$addHandler(window, 'keypress', testkeypress);
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>Untitled Page</p>
</body>
</html>
Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong or provide an example of how to do this? Thanks in advance.
