Function keys

[Larry Scoffield]

I can capture the function keys, but I am unable to disable the function key
from being acted upon by the browser. For example the f5 key refreshes the
window.

Is there a way to cature the function key and keep Netscape or IE from
acting on the key pressed.

Re: Function keys

you can detect by using
document.onkeyp ress
but the question is why would you want to do it ?
i would not be happy browsing your site if you were interfering with base
controls.
