Example being the arrow keys are keycode 37-40

OK, once more for the slow kids.

When I use the alert code that you provide, it shows some unexpected values for certain keys.

For instance if I press the COMMA key, I get a value of 188. When I look that up in the ASCII table that is provided, it says that a 188 is a 'double line lower right-hand corner'. It says a COMMA should be 44.

What is up with this? Am I doing something wrong?

btw, I am using IE 6.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.
