Here's the keystroke capture function from the file manager I'm working on.
Hope it helps.
You may want to bind the keydown to the object instead. Mine intercepts all
keystrokes unless specifically prevented.
document.onkeydown = function(e) {
if (protectKeystrokes) {return true;}
if (window.event) { // IE
var keyCode = window.event.keyCode;
var ctrlKey = window.event.ctrlKey;
} else { // FF
var keyCode = e.which;
var ctrlKey = e.ctrlKey;
}
//alert(keyCode);
//return false;
switch(keyCode) {
case 13: // enter
case 32: // space bar
if ($(selectedNode).is('.dir')) {
toggleDir(selectedNode);
} else {
openFile(selectedNode);
}
return true;
break;
case 38: // up arrow
moveSelectUp();
return true;
break;
case 40: // down arrow
moveSelectDown();
return true;
break;
case 46: // delete
promptDelete(selectedNode);
return true;
break;
case 113: // F2
$('#nameField').get(0).focus();
return true;
break;
}
switch (String.fromCharCode(keyCode).toLowerCase()) {
case 'o':
if (ctrlKey) {
if ($(selectedNode).is('.dir')) {
openDir(selectedNode);
} else {
openFile(selectedNode);
}
if (window.event) {
// block dialog
window.event.keyCode = 505;
}
return false;
}
break;
}
}
