Hi,

How do i disable F11 key. I used the below code it works for IE but it does not work for Netscape.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

function onKeyDown() {
if ( (event.altKey) || ((event.keyCode == 8) &&
(event.srcElement.type != "text" &&
event.srcElement.type != "textarea" &&
event.srcElement.type != "password")) ||
((event.ctrlKey) && ((event.keyCode == 82)) ) ||
(event.keyCode == 122) ) {
event.keyCode = 0;
event.returnValue = false;
}
}

</script>
<body onkeydown=onKeyDown()>

</SCRIPT>

This'll be a start, but be aware: if I wish to browse full-screen and you've disabled it, I'm leaving your site and never coming back.

function onKeyDown(event) {
evt = window.event? window.event : arguments[0];
if ( (evt.altKey) || ((evt.keyCode == 8) && (evt.srcElement.type != "text" && evt.srcElement.type != "textarea" && evt.srcElement.type != "password")) ||
((evt.ctrlKey) && ((evt.keyCode == 82)) ) ||
(evt.keyCode == 122) ) {
evt.keyCode = 0;
evt.returnValue = false;
}
}

This will need other changes, but I'm only helping this amount because you should learn how to handle events in Mozilla, even if AOL did just axe Netscape. The browser ain't going away.

Why do you want to disable F11? What will it possibly do except annoy people who don't know to turn your script off?
