RE: HTML as a 5250 replacement

Joe,

That is a really useful trick. I had used something similar with the arrow keys
to scroll through an array, but never thought about combining that with function
keys.

Thanks,

David Morris

Function keys are not recognized for the keypress event, only the keydown
event.  Also, since they often cause other things to happen, you need to
return false in order to stop the event from propagating (and thereby
invoking whatever feature the browser would normally invoke for that
function key).  This, unfortunately, is the part that Netscape seems to have
a problem with.
