Never underestimate what stupid things users will do. Good UI only goes so far in preventing these mishaps. I was wondering about disabling/remapping the keyboard keys with JavaScript, and while most say it can't be done, there was this interesting post I found. It may not be perfect, but it could be a place to start fiddling: This script will disable the back button from keyboard <HTML> <HEAD> <script> function checkShortcut() { //alert(event.keyCode); if(event.keyCode==8 || event.keyCode==13) { return false; } } </script> </HEAD> <body onkeydown="return checkShortcut()"> Test </HTML> This script will disable shift+F10 button <html> <head> <title>Javascript split function</title> <script language="javascript"> function test(){ window.showModalDialog("http://www.msn.com","Dialog Arguments Value","dialogHeight: 500px; dialogWidth: 500px; dialogTop: 288px; dialogLeft: 209px; edge: Sunken; center: Yes; help: Yes; resizable: No; status: No;"); } </script> </head> <body> <form name="frm" action="" method="post"> <input type="button" name="showModalDialog" value="showModalDialog" onclick="test()"> </form> </body> </html> The script apparently needs to be placed on a popup window, which often isn't a problem with Flash.
