Thank you for testing KeyTrap. :-) Your results will help make KeyTrap.js a truly "browser-universal" key-detection library. Please post your results to the <a href="http://f5.dejanews.com/frameset/frameset.cgi?channel=devhead&forum=scripthead">ScriptHead Forum.</a><p>
<form>
You pressed: <input type="text" name="keynameText" onFocus="this.blur()"><p>
1. In Netscape 4+ or MSIE 4+, press each of the following keys. Except where noted, the pressed key's identity should be displayed in the above text box. If not, please let me know.<p>
<table border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" bgcolor="#99CCFF">
<tr>
<td>
<p>Note: In some cases, your browser and/or operating system might trap a key (in step 1) or a key combination (in step 2) *before* KeyTrap gets around to it. If this happens, please include it in your results.</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table><p>
<ul>
<li>All alphanumeric/punctuation keys, but *not* in combination with Shift, Ctrl, or Alt (and their Mac equivalents)<br>
<li>Esc (won't work in NS4), Tab (ditto), Backspace, Spacebar, and Enter<br>
<li>All twelve function keys (won't work in NS4)<br>
<li>The four arrow keys (won't work in NS4)
</ul><p>
2. Press each of the following key combinations (alas, these will not work in NS4, because NS4 does not support Shift/Ctrl/Alt+key detection). Again, please let me know if any of these combos' identities is not displayed in the text box.<p>
