window.event is undefined 1

[thewhistler1]

Hello all

I have an issue getting this to work in firefox, it seems to work fine in other browsers but firefox gives an error window.event is undefined when I try to use this. Any ideas?

<script>
document.onkeydown=function(evt) {
  var thelink
  if (window.event.keyCode==37) thelink='cb_prev'
  else if (window.event.keyCode==39) thelink='cb_next'
  else return
  document.getElementsByName(thelink)[0].onclick()
}
</script>

Firefox doesn't know what window.event is. It uses just the event object. So you need to do a check to see what browser is being used, and use the appropriate object.

var myevent=window.event? event : e; 

if(myevent.keycode==37)
...
