Jonathan,
I found the following script...
var isNS =document.appName=="Netscape"?true:false;
var isIE =document.all?true:false;
function keyHandler(e)
{
var _ret=true;
var _char=isIE?event.keyCode:e.which;
alert("key press:" + _char);
if(_char==13) /* enter key */
_ret=false; /* kill event bubler */
return _ret;
}
if(isNS)document.captureEvents(Event.KEYPERSS);/*for NS4*/
window.onkeypress=keyHandler;
How do I call or initiate it? (What is 'e'?)
