Question

If your building a game or interactive website and want to use the arrow keys as a page function. (e.g. having something on the screen move)

Is it possible to disable page scrolling via the arrow keys?

Answer 1

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(document).keydown(function(Event) {
        if(Event.which == 38 || Event.which == 40) {
            Event.preventDefault();
            // Do whatever you want
        }
    });
});
