[Flashcoders] registering Enter key along with mouse event

[Mendelsohn, Michael]

Hi list...

I have a sprite that should fire an event either when it's clicked, or
when it has focus and the spacebar or the enter key is pressed.  The
mouse click and the spacebar keyUp events (when the sprite has focus)
work fine, but the enter key won't fire the event.  Here's my if
statement.  Am I missing something?

private function myEvent(e:*):void {
if(e.type ==keyUp){
trace(e.keyCode);
// traces 32 for spacebar but nothing for enter key
}
if
((e.type==mouseUp)||((e.type==keyUp)(e.keyCode==32))||((e.type==k
eyUp)(e.keyCode==Keyboard.ENTER))) {

thanks,
- Michael M.

Is this in the IDE? If so, you need to turn off keyboard shortcuts

Thanks Ivan and Eric.

I did have shortcuts disabled, but even with control|test movie, it seems the 
IDE still traps the enter key.  It worked when I launched the swf outside Flash 
altogether.

Thanks,
