Question

Alright so, what I need is a way to forward keypress (or keydown, whatever) event that occurred on textarea element, and what I’ve tried to do is this:

<div id="wrapper" ng-controller="MyTestCtrl">
    <div id="text" ng-click="DivClick()">
        <ul>
            <li ng-repeat="item in items">
                <textarea ng-click="InnerClick()" ui-keypress="TextKeypress()" autofocus></textarea>
            </li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>

But it seems to be acting funny and I want to avoid using any particular key-code since I need it to updates that textarea’s height every time a user types something in it (which is what TextKeypress functions is doing).

Answer 1

You could use uiEvent: <textarea ui-event=" { keypress: 'whatever($event)' } ">

UPDATE:

The core now include ng-keypress too! (no idea which version)
