Safari Issue

[laltvm]

I have a strange issue with safari.
My intention was to capture for the keystroke and increment and decrement a particular test box value by 1 or -1.The following is my code.

    var y=x.value
    var VK_UP = 38;
    var VK_DOWN = 40;
    switch (e.keyCode){
        case VK_UP : {    y++;                        
                     break}
        case VK_DOWN : {y--;
                        break}
        default : {return};
    }
    x.value=y
}
 

This works for both IE and firefox. But its working for Safari in MAC machine in a strange way. The value i was getting after a key press is either +/-2 rather than +/-1.Can anyone help to solve this issue?

Thanks

Can you show us how do you attach the event handler?
