[Bug 58693] Re: onKeyPress event not fired when typing accents
The bug persists in Firefox 3.6.13 (with a brand-new profile) on Kubuntu 10.04. It appears to be Firefox-specific, as Opera and Chrome work just fine. The broken behavior is still the same. Pressing any dead key only triggers »keyup« (where all values are 0). Pressing a non-dead key after that also only triggers »keyup«, with the »which« and »keyCode« properties set to the value of the base key. E.g., pressing dead acute and 'a' yields: keyup: which=0 keyCode=0 [for the dead acute] keyup: which=65 keyCode=65 [for 'a'] Pressing dead grave and a or dead circumflex plus a yields exactly the same. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/58693 Title: onKeyPress event not fired when typing accents -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Updated https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308820 . It's been moved to RESOLVED INCOMPLETE state. It needs to be reopened on the Mozilla side. I think I know what is going on. Newer versions of Firefox are firing compositionstart, compositionupdate, and compositionend events; and not dispatching keypress events for dead key combinations. Refer to http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/#events-keyboardevents and http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/#events-textevents . There an error in the implementation of compositionend. Firefox browsers are not firing textinput events. I believe that this is the only way Firefox will enable JavaScript developers to write code that is OS-independent. This is going to require a more senior Mozilla engineer to give the go-ahead as it will involve the talents of multiple engineers. It's probably worth tracking bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=447757 , as it has a new HTML example attached. ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #447757 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=447757 -- onKeyPress event not fired when typing accents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/58693 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 58693] Re: onKeyPress event not fired when typing accents
Bottom Line == There are multiple bugs w/r to keyboard events in Firefox on Linux. Background == JavaScript events have attributes. Mozilla currently does the following for key and text events: (1) Assigns values to the attribute keyCode for keyup and keydown events. The assignment is often wrong (null) on Linux. (2) Assigns values to the attribute charCode for keypress events. The assignment is often wrong (null) on Linux. (3) Bungles the assignment of attributes to compositionstart and compositionend on Linux The W3C specification declines to specify what the correct values are for assignments to charCode and keyCode. It makes recommendations for the assignment of two new attributes: char and key. In principal, these assignments could be made more less operating system and browser independent. (4) Firefox does not make assignments to either of the new char or key attributes. In the tables below, no attempt is made to indicate the lack of assignment. Assignment of both char and key look relatively easy. The previous draft of the W3C DOM Level 3 Events specification was more challenging. (5) Firefox dispatches compositionstart and compositionend events on Linux. On Windows the behavior is completely different. This is an OS dependency that is difficult to code around. (6) W3C calls for a textInput event to get fired after the last keyup. If Firefox implemented this part of the spec then the OS-dependency and browser-dependency it's current implementation is requiring could be made to vanish -- at least for the majority of the applications that listen to the keyboard. In an earlier post on this topic, operating system inconsistencies had not been determined. Now they are and they are large.

There is a problem with specific lattin characters. You want to write e.g. latin small letter u with diaeresis (ü). If you write it directly, it works - you get the keyCode. But if you press diaeresis first and then u, nothing will happen.
