Anyone know anything about the Links browser? I am developing an application for Links (text mode) that is running on a terminal using Linux. The problem is that none of the ‘on key’ events (down, up, or press) will register. Here is the Javascript I am using:
<body onload="Alert()" onkeydown="CheckKey(event.keyCode)">
<script type="text/javascript">
function CheckKey(keycode) {
alert(keycode)
}
function Alert(){
alert("onload is working")
}
</script>
<!--A table goes here-->
</body>
The onload event is working fine, so I know that Javascript is enabled for the browser, but the onkeydown event does nothing. The problem is, I don’t know if it is an issue with Links, Javascript, or possibly even a restriction of the terminal that it is running on. Was there a version of Javascript that didn’t support ‘onkey’ events? Just a thought…
Any help would be appreciated!
I don’t think that they will work. Links uses key commands for it’s own navigation, I think that it’s just not passing them to your script.
