Javascript for Netscape onKeyPress

You should have posted your script code so we could have pointed out the problem more easily.

However I am going to take a guess that your code doesn't check to see which browser it is running on. The problem is that the event object is not standard across browsers and the way to access the key being pressed is different, look at this example and see if it helps

[html]
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function noNumbers(e)
{
var keynum
var keychar
var numcheck

if(window.event ) // IE
{
keynum = e.keyCode
}
else if(e.which) // Netscape/Firefox/Opera
{
keynum = e.which
}
keychar = String.fromChar Code(keynum)
numcheck = /\d/
return !numcheck.test( keychar)
}
</script>

<form>
<input type="text" onkeypress="ret urn noNumbers(event )" />
</form>

</html>
[/html]

This example comes from http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_onkeypress.asp

Javascript

hi It works fine for only one condition ie accepts number or aplphabets.

But it wont accept alphanumeics. I had found the code for accepting alphanumeric values only.

thanks for ur code.
