Hi, Rob Actually, this isn't that bad. The name of the key being used is listed at the very beginning of the page so that it need not be a standard key. However, a standard key would be desirable if possible. There are only two browsers which support Javascript. I've found that the ctrl-z key works on both for this purpose. It might mean doing some outreach to the browser developers to ask that the ctrl-z key be kept free. If this isn't possible, the second approach, though less desirable would be to identify a particular key per browser. Scott PS A trick I've used when coding keyboard events in Javascript is to use a look-up table to convert keys into functions. It makes the code much simpler to change. It also supports multiple versions of keyboard events. > is there a standard keyboard access list? but i think the answer is no. if > not then whose responsibility is this? we cannot have different access > lists - this is a nightmare for implementation and developers!
