function key mapping...

[r6uji7]

hello world!

is it possible to capture function keys on a php page? someone did
mention to me abouot ncurses but i thought it was not available for
windows (on which i'm trying a few things out).

if it is possible to trap the function keys, could someone help me and
tell me more (or point me at the right direction)?

That would be client site, ie javascript. PHP is server site. ncurses
is only for writing console scripts.

I know in mozilla, you can use:

<button label="Apply instantly" accesskey="A" />

And it will automatically assign that to ALT-A (or CTRL-A on a mac)...
but not sure if IE uses or has the same thing (I'd hazard a guess at not).

No, not on a php page served to a HTTP client.
Maybe JavaScript (or some other *client* thing) can do that; try asking
in a javascript newsgroup.

It's available for Cygwin ( http://www.cygwin.com/ )
