char 只读 未实现 (查看 bug 680830) |
DOMString (string) |
The character value of the key.
If the key corresponds to a printable character, this value is a non-empty Unicode string containing that character.
If the key doesn't have a printable representation, this is an empty string.
See key names and char values for the detail.
Note: If the key is used as a macro that inserts multiple characters, this attribute's value is the entire string, not just the first character.
|
key 未实现 (查看 bug 680830) |
DOMString (string) |
The key value of the key represented by the event.
If the value has a printed representation, this attribute's value is the same as the char attribute.
Otherwise, it's one of the key value strings specified in {{ anch("Key values") }}.
If the key can't be identified, this is the string "Unidentified".
See key names and char values for the detail.
Read Only.
|
charCode 只读 |
Unsigned long (int) |
The Unicode reference number of the key; this attribute is used only by the keypress event.
For keys whose char attribute contains multiple characters, this is the Unicode value of the first character in that attribute.
Warning: This attribute is deprecated; you should use
char instead, if available.
|
keyCode 只读 |
Unsigned long (int) |
A system and implementation dependent numerical code identifying the unmodified value of the pressed key.
This is usually the decimal ASCII ({{ RFC(20) }}) or Windows 1252 code corresponding to the key; see {{ anch("Virtual key codes") }} for a list of common values.
If the key can't be identified, this value is 0.
Warning: This attribute is deprecated; you should use
key instead, if available.

preventDefault()
of keydown
event
Starting with Gecko 25, a call of preventDefault()
of keydown
event prevents to dispatch following keypress
event. This is valid behavior for D3E spec and the other major web browsers behave this way. On the other hand, Gecko 24 or earlier dispatched keypress
event even if preventDefault()
of preceding keydown
event is called. Although the keypress
event's defaultPrevented
attribute was true
in this case.
