[Solved] Override browser hot keys on client side

[muhammad toori]

Hi all
I want to be able to allow users to add/delete/update/select rows in a radgrid using hot keys. Some of these hot keys like Ctrl+E  (search) and Ctrl+S (save) are browser hotkeys. I use ClientSettings event OnKeyPress to define what the hot key should do using javascript. The problem is that when i use Ctrl+E or Ctrl+S or any other windows Hot keys OnKeyPress is not even called because the hot key is already taken. How can i override the default hot keys so that i can define my own on the client side


Thanks

You can do this by accessing they key codes in javascript and then executing whatever code you might want. I think the following blog post can really help:
