onKeyPress event not working in Firefox

Question

I have the following javascript code...Here I am using onKeyPress=\"someFunction( )\" in the body tag to get the keyCode of the key that is pressed.

Answer 1

Pass event object as an parameter and your code will work in IE as well as firefox. The code example is as follows :

function keypress(event) {
  alert(event.keyCode);
  var key=event.keyCode;
  if(key==112 || key==80)
      printDiv();
  else if(key==101 || key==69)
      window.location="http://google.com";
  else if(key==114 || key==82)
      window.reset();  
}
