e.keyCode == 13 not working in Firefox

[rbenson41]

I need help with this issue in Firefox. I have inherited some older code that I need to get working in Firefox. See Below

function inputText(e) {
if ( window.event ) {
e = window.event;
}

if ( e.keyCode == 13 || e.which==13 ) {
str = checkSpecial( f1.itext.value );
HOL_Talk( avatar, background, voice, '', str );
f1.itext.value = "";
return false;
}
return true;
}
It looks like Firefox just refreshes the screen on hitting the enter key.

Any help would be very appreciated.

I have not had a problem with the following code in Firefox:

<input type="text" onchange="calculate()" size="5" name="hour2" onkeypress="var e=window.event; if(e && e.keyCode===13){this.onchange();}"/>

but I just noticed there are three equal signs, but in a brief test two worked as well.

The page is VCR.htm. If you check it out entering 500 tab 950 Enter works on IE9, FF5, and Crome.

What version of FF are you using?

[wbport]

Ff 5.0

I was finally able to capture the error and found that Firefox (for some reason) does not recognize my form -->f1. I took the original coded form and put it in a div and for some reason it's not able to recognize it. This is the error message from Firebug, "f1 is not defined
str = checkSpecial( f1.itext.value );"

Anyway, thank for your time and effort I really appreciate it.
