Hello all,
I am looking for a little guidence. I have written a page in which I
am trying to identify when a function key (f1-f12) is pressed. When the
key is pressed a pre-defined event will occur.
I have done this with re-defining document.onKeydown. This works
wonderfully, with one exception.
When the end user is typing in a standard input field, with simple
text, the input will "pause". For example, as I am writting this the
echo of the letters is instant.
With the javascript function checking keystrokes, the page seems to
"pause" the input of standard text.
So my question is this, is there a way to remap, redefine, or simply
assign actions to be performed by the function keys, with out haveing
to check each keystoke?
Any help would be apreciated. Also, if it can't be done with
javascript, perhaps VBscript or ActiveX.
Thanks
