Determining the Browser and event.keyCode vs. event.which
I am writing a piece of code for an ASP.NET function that generates an
onKeyPress JavaScript eventhandler that uses the event.keyCode / event.which properties. I have two situations that I would appreciate any advice on: 1. I know that IE uses event.keyCode to get the key pressed. I have, however, seen sites that some versions of Netscape use event.which and some versions use event.keyCode. Does anyone know of a site that lists which one all the versions of as many of the existing browsers as possible use? 2. I need to write server-side ASP.NET code in VB.NET to determine which browser is requesting the page. I know that this is done using the Page.Request.Browser object, but because this is the first time I have needed to worry about the browser all the way down to the specific version, I want to know the best, simplest, most efficient way to do this. Thank you to everyone in advance. -- Nathan Sokalski njsokalski@hotmail.com http://www.nathansokalski.com/ |

Nathan,
This is the only link I still have what maybe covers what I think you are asking. http://www.webmonkey.com//reference/browser_chart/ I hope this helps, Cor "Nathan Sokalski" <njsokalski@hotmail.com> schreef in bericht news:ubRDhTARGHA.1868@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... >I am writing a piece of code for an ASP.NET function that generates an > onKeyPress JavaScript eventhandler that uses the event.keyCode / > event.which > properties.

Re: Determining the Browser and event.keyCode vs. event.which
It's a nice chart, but unfortunately it does not have the information I am
looking for. I am trying to determine what browsers use event.keyCode and what browsers use event.which (these both refer to the ascii code of the key pressed to trigger JavaScript events such as onKeyPress). -- Nathan Sokalski njsokalski@hotmail.com http://www.nathansokalski.com/ "Cor Ligthert [MVP]" <notmyfirstname@planet.nl> wrote in message news:upkaRtARGHA.1728@TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl... > Nathan, > > This is the only link I still have what maybe covers what I think you are > asking. > > http://www.webmonkey.com//reference/browser_chart/ > > I hope this helps, > > Cor > > "Nathan Sokalski" <njsokalski@hotmail.com> schreef in bericht > news:ubRDhTARGHA.1868@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... >>I am writing a piece of code for an ASP.NET function that generates an >> onKeyPress JavaScript eventhandler that uses the event.keyCode / >> event.which >> properties.

Re: Determining the Browser and event.keyCode vs. event.which
Well, that's good to know, it should somewhat simplify what I need to test
for. When experimenting with ASP.NET's Page.Request.Browser object, which is what I plan to use to determine whether to sent JavaScript that uses event.which or event.keyCode, I generated the following page: ActiveXControlstrue AOLfalse BackgroundSoundstrue Betafalse BrowserIE CDFfalse ClrVersion Cookiestrue Crawlerfalse EcmaScriptVersion1.2 Framestrue JavaAppletstrue JavaScripttrue MajorVersion6 MinorVersion.0 MSDomVersion6.0 PlatformWinXP Tablestrue TypeIE6 VBScripttrue Version6.0 W3CDomVersion1.0 Win16false Win32true GetClrVersions()1.1.4322, 2.0.50727 I am assuming that I would use either the Browser or Type properties to determine the user's browser. What are the different values that would be returned by the different browsers (so I know what different values to test for, particularly the less well known browsers) in the Browser and Type properties?
