what are the "letter codes" for this...

[sciguyryan]

hi all,


i had this code given to me earlier in this forum:


<script>
<!--
function getKey() {
if (String.fromCharCode(event.keyCode)=="a"){
location="http://a1-javascripts.com"
}
}
document.onkeypress = getKey;
// -->
</script>

but, what are the codes for the buttons such as "tab" the "F" buttons and things like ! and other "upper" letters.



can anyone provide an answer?
thank you for your help.

hi,



thank you pyro your a great help but, how do i incorperate that number into the script?

[pyro]

This script should work better cross browser.

<script type="text/javascript">
function whichKey(e) {
if (window.event) {
code = event.keyCode
}
else {
code = e.which;
}
if (code == 65) { //Chage the code here. Currently set to the letter 'a'.
window.location.href = "http://www.webdevfaqs.com";
}
}
document.onkeydown = whichKey;
</script>
