Re: [qooxdoo-devel] Catching backspace keypress in Qx 0.5.x?

Hi Sebastian,

With your code (below) pressing the alpha-num keys causes alerts like "caught keystroke: 104". Pressing backspace causes no alert but it does make the browser do a history.back(), which is what I want to disable.

I also notice that pressing F1 to F12, shift, ctrl, alt, insert, delete, home, end, page up/down causes no alert.

Please try the following:

d.addEventListener(QxConst.EVENT_TYPE_KEYPRESS, function(e) {
alert("caught keystroke: " + e.getKeyCode());
});

What is the alert message if you press backspace in IE?
