I've run into the same problem, as I'm sure thousands of coders have.
The problem is that the browsers (other than IE) don't like window.event.
I'm poking around trying to find a solution (which is how I stumbled across this), and I found the following (so far):
1) Write JQuery:
$(document).keyup(function(e) {
var GetKey = e.keyCode;
`enter code here`
}
});
2) Redefine the key variable:
var key = (window.event) ? evt.keyCode : evt.which;
I tried the JQuery solution. It seems to be okay in FF, but I ran into an unexpected bug in IE that I'm still trying to solve. I haven't yet tried the second solution; that's next, if I can't get the JQuery to work.
