Hey,

Ive made a 4 player javascript game and i get the key events like so...

<html>
<head>
<script language=javascript>

function getKeyDown(evt){
if(evt.keyCode==whatever){
//blah blah blah
}
}

</script>
</head>
<body onKeyDown="getKeyDown(window.event);">
</body>
</html>

So anyway, when 4 people are playing, and someone holds down a certian
key, someone elses keys dont work. Is there a way to make them all work
evenly?

thanks

you can make it work onkeyup or onkeypress, maybe that will work.....

Thanks for the reply, but when i use onKeyPress, it doesnt work at all.
and im already using onKeyUp for when the player stops.
