overwriting browser's keycode

[stefan.goessner@gmail.com]

I want to overwrite the CTRL+S key via 'onkeypress' so, that the
browser doesn't recognize it as 'Save page as ..' command.

I assumed, that calling 'evt.preventDef ault()' in my event-handler
would be sufficient. It isn't.

Any hints ?

Thanks

Stefan

Re: overwriting browser's keycode

I resolved it by implementing 'onkeydown' and 'onkeyup' handlers, that
also call 'evt.preventDef ault()'.
