onkeypress, enter and iexplorer

[Juan]

Hello:

I'm having a problem with a simple javascript code that checks if the
enter key had been pressed or not. The code works propertly in mozilla,
but in iexplorer it only works one time, the second one the event isn't
throw any more, and I can't catch it.

Anyone can help me?

this is the sample code

function searchIntro(oEv ent)
{
if (oEvento.keyCod e)
iAscii = oEvent.keyCode;
else if (oEvent.which)
iAscii = oEvent.which;
else
return false;
if (iAscii == 13)
{
sendData();
}

}

<input type="text" id ="textBoxNam e1" name="CCO" size="69"
onkeypress="Sea rchIntro(event) "></tr>

Thanks a lot

function searchIntro(oEv ent)
should be: SearchIntro(oEv ent)
case sensitive!!
{
if (oEvento.keyCod e)
should be: oEvent.keyCode
iAscii = oEvent.keyCode;
else if (oEvent.which)
iAscii = oEvent.which;
else
return false;
a return value is not used by onkeypress
if (iAscii == 13)
{
sendData();
}
}

<input type="text" id ="textBoxNam e1" name="CCO" size="69"
onkeypress="Sea rchIntro(event) "></tr>

A shorter version of your function is:

function SearchIntro(oEv ent){
if ((oEvent.keyCod e && oEvent.keyCode= =13)
|| (oEvent.which && oEvent.which==1 3)) {
sendData();
}

Thanks evertjan, but the trouble's still here : I made a mistakes
copying function to this message :-), but the case sensitive is
correctly implemented.

It only works the first time, the second one, on Internet Explorer,
fails and doesn't capture any other onkeypress event.Mozilla runs fine
the code everytime I use it.

whats happening?

That depends on your function sendData().
Always try an adviced code on itself first.
This works every time in IE:

<script type='text/javascript'>

function SearchIntro(oEv ent){
if ((oEvent.keyCod e && oEvent.keyCode= =13)
|| (oEvent.which && oEvent.which==1 3)) {
alert('<return> detected');
}
}
</script>

<input onkeypress='Sea rchIntro(event) '>
