I have a CKEditor 3.0 instance 'editor' and on its 'key' event a listener is attached so that when that function is returning false it should not type that key character on editor, that is if key 'k' is pressed it should not be displayed on the editor if the function is returning false
editor.on('key', function(e)
{
alert(""+e.data.keyCode);
return false;
});
I used above code for this but it is not working, means the character is getting typed on the editor
Trying the same using a plugin where on keypress of keycode 65 the other language character should show up instead of english language character.
CKEDITOR.plugins.add( 'typing',
{
init: function( editor )
{
editor.addCommand( 'insertcharacter',
{
exec : function( editor )
{
alert(editor.id);
alert(editor.name);
editor.on('key', function(e)
{
alert("Hello"+e.data.keyCode);
if(e.data.keyCode == 65)
{
editor.insertText('Other Language Character');
}
return false;
});
}
});
can u suggest me any solution for this.
Thanks
found the answer recently. this worked for me in the latest version(4.x).
editor.document.on('keypress', function(e) {
e.data.preventDefault(); // this will prevent the default action for any event
//your code goes here
});
In v4 you can use editor.on('key') and cancel() the event when the appropriate key is pressed.
So to ignore k keypresses,
editor.on('key', function(evt) {
var keyCodeToIgnore = 'K'.charCodeAt(); // Upper case K. Only one k key.
var pressedKeyCode = evt.data.keyCode;
if ( pressedKeyCode === keyCodeToIgnore ) {
evt.cancel();
}
}
(That wouldn't prevent 'k's being added by other means, of course, such as pasting.)
See http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/api/CKEDITOR.editor-event-key
You can also configure the editor to block specified keystrokes. Using that you can specify case. So to ignore k and not K:
config.blockedKeystrokes = [75]; // To ignore k and K: [75, 107]
Though you'd probably want to keep the default blockedKeystrokes as well.
See http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/api/CKEDITOR.config-cfg-blockedKeystrokes
The first method lets you do other stuff of course. You could drive people crazy by ignoring a 'u' if the previous keypress was a 'q', for example.
use following code before return from function to Cancel/block the character/event.
e.cancelBubble = true;
e.returnValue = false;
e.cancel();
e.stop();
return false;
where e is in parameter of function
I came looking for a way to bind something to the the enter key press. Except I'm using contenteditable div tags, and maybe that made the above solutions not work for me.
However I came to this, that seems to be working perfectly
$(function () {
CKEDITOR.instances['<the DOM ID of your element>'].on('key', function (e) {
if (e.data.keyCode === 13) {
//yeet
e.cancel();
}
});
});

I have created a simple code to handle keypress event:
var counter = 0;
$('input').on('keypress', function () {
$('div').text('key pressed ' + ++counter);
});
JSFiddle.
But keypress event handler is not raised on mobile browser (Android 4+, WindowsPhone 7.5+).
What could be the issue?
I believe keypress is deprecated now. You can check in the Dom Level 3 Spec. Using keydown or keyup should work. The spec also recommends that you should use beforeinput instead of keypress but I'm not sure what the support of this is.
Use the keyup event:
// JavaScript:
var counter = 0;
document.querySelector('input').addEventListener('keyup', function () {
document.querySelector('div').textContent = `key up ${++counter}`;
});
// jQuery:
var counter = 0;
$('input').on('keyup', function () {
$('div').text('key up ' + ++counter);
});
Use jQuery's input event, like this:
$( 'input' ).on( 'input', function() {
...
} );
With this you can't use e.which for determining which key was pressed, but I found a nice workaround here: http://jsfiddle.net/zminic/8Lmay/
$(document).ready(function() {
var pattForZip = /[0-9]/;
$('#id').on('keypress input', function(event) {
if(event.type == "keypress") {
if(pattForZip.test(event.key)) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
if(event.type == 'input') {
var bufferValue = $(this).val().replace(/\D/g,'');
$(this).val(bufferValue);
}
})
})
Yes, some android browser are not supporting keypress event, we need use to only keydown or keyup but will get different keycodes, to avoiding different key codes use the following function to get the keycode by sending char value.
Eg:
function getKeyCode(str) {
return str && str.charCodeAt(0);
}
function keyUp(){
var keyCode = getKeyCode("1");
}
I think it is bad idea to use other events in place of 'keypress'.
What you need to do is just include a jQuery file into your project.
A file named jQuery.mobile.js or quite similar (ex. jQuery.ui.js) of any version can help you.
You can download it from : https://jquerymobile.com/download/
I've read all the answers on to this questions and none of the solutions seem to work.
Also, I am getting the vibe that triggering keypress with special characters does not work at all. Can someone verify who has done this?
If you want to trigger the keypress or keydown event then all you have to do is:
var e = jQuery.Event("keydown");
e.which = 50; // # Some key code value
$("input").trigger(e);
Slightly more concise now with jQuery 1.6+:
var e = jQuery.Event( 'keydown', { which: $.ui.keyCode.ENTER } );
$('input').trigger(e);
(If you're not using jQuery UI, sub in the appropriate keycode instead.)
The real answer has to include keyCode:
var e = jQuery.Event("keydown");
e.which = 50; // # Some key code value
e.keyCode = 50
$("input").trigger(e);
Even though jQuery's website says that which and keyCode are normalized they are very badly mistaken. It's always safest to do the standard cross-browser checks for e.which and e.keyCode and in this case just define both.
If you're using jQuery UI too, you can do like this:
var e = jQuery.Event("keypress");
e.keyCode = $.ui.keyCode.ENTER;
$("input").trigger(e);
I made it work with keyup.
$("#id input").trigger('keyup');
Ok, for me that work with this...
var e2key = function(e) {
if (!e) return '';
var event2key = {
'96':'0', '97':'1', '98':'2', '99':'3', '100':'4', '101':'5', '102':'6', '103':'7', '104':'8', '105':'9', // Chiffres clavier num
'48':'m0', '49':'m1', '50':'m2', '51':'m3', '52':'m4', '53':'m5', '54':'m6', '55':'m7', '56':'m8', '57':'m9', // Chiffres caracteres speciaux
'65':'a', '66':'b', '67':'c', '68':'d', '69':'e', '70':'f', '71':'g', '72':'h', '73':'i', '74':'j', '75':'k', '76':'l', '77':'m', '78':'n', '79':'o', '80':'p', '81':'q', '82':'r', '83':'s', '84':'t', '85':'u', '86':'v', '87':'w', '88':'x', '89':'y', '90':'z', // Alphabet
'37':'left', '39':'right', '38':'up', '40':'down', '13':'enter', '27':'esc', '32':'space', '107':'+', '109':'-', '33':'pageUp', '34':'pageDown' // KEYCODES
};
return event2key[(e.which || e.keyCode)];
};
var page5Key = function(e, customKey) {
if (e) e.preventDefault();
switch(e2key(customKey || e)) {
case 'left': /*...*/ break;
case 'right': /*...*/ break;
}
};
$(document).bind('keyup', page5Key);
$(document).trigger('keyup', [{preventDefault:function(){},keyCode:37}]);
Of you want to do it in a single line you can use
$("input").trigger(jQuery.Event('keydown', { which: '1'.charCodeAt(0) }));
In case you need to take into account the current cursor and text selection...
This wasn't working for me for an AngularJS app on Chrome. As Nadia points out in the original comments, the character is never visible in the input field (at least, that was my experience). In addition, the previous solutions don't take into account the current text selection in the input field. I had to use a wonderful library jquery-selection.
I have a custom on-screen numeric keypad that fills in multiple input fields. I had to...
On focus, save the lastFocus.element
On blur, save the current text selection (start and stop)
var pos = element.selection('getPos')
lastFocus.pos = { start: pos.start, end: pos.end}
When a button on the my keypad is pressed:
lastFocus.element.selection( 'setPos', lastFocus.pos)
lastFocus.element.selection( 'replace', {text: myKeyPadChar, caret: 'end'})
console.log( String.fromCharCode(event.charCode) );
no need to map character i guess.
It can be accomplished like this docs
$('input').trigger("keydown", {which: 50});
When non-printable char is pressed, it's replaced with let's say for CTRL=17 with "[CTRL]".
Here is code an example
$('#textbox1').keyup(function (event) {
if (8 != event.keyCode) {
if(17==event.keyCode){
$('#textbox1').val($('#textbox1').val()+"[CTRL]")
$('#textbox2').val($('#textbox1').val());
}else{
$('#textbox2').val($('#textbox1').val());
}
} else {
$('#textbox2').val($('#textbox1').val());
}
});
the problem is when user presses backspace the second input must reflect the content of the first one, so "[CTRL]" must be deleted at once like any other chars.
You could make use of the keyCode and/or in combination with charCode (if required). Basic idea would be:
Create a map of all required key codes in an array/object
Handle event for say keydown and listen for keycode
Look for the keycode in your map and if found show it
prevent the default (to prevent e.g. say backspace browsing back)
If not found in map, let the character go thru as usual.
A very basic example:
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/abhitalks/L7nhZ/
Relevant js:
keyMap = {8:"[Backspace]",9:"[Tab]",13:"[Enter]",16:"[Shift]",17:"[Ctrl]",18:"[Alt]",19:"[Break]",20:"[Caps Lock]",27:"[Esc]",32:"[Space]",33:"[Page Up]",34:"[Page Down]",35:"[End]",36:"[Home]",37:"[Left]",38:"[Up]",39:"[Right]",40:"[Down]",45:"[Insert]",46:"[Delete]"};
$("#txt").on("keydown", function(e) {
// check if the keycode is in the map that what you want
if (typeof(keyMap[e.keyCode]) !== 'undefined') {
// if found add the corresponding description to the existing text
this.value += keyMap[e.keyCode];
// prevent the default behavior
e.preventDefault();
}
// if not found, let the entered character go thru as is
});
Edit: (as per the comments)
The concept remains the same, just copying the value to the second input:
Demo 2: http://jsfiddle.net/abhitalks/L7nhZ/3/
$("#txt1").on("keyup", function(e) {
if (typeof(keyMap[e.keyCode]) !== 'undefined') {
this.value += keyMap[e.keyCode];
e.preventDefault();
}
$("#txt2").val(this.value); // copy the value to the second input
});
Regarding deletion of the description, I could not get it done by caching the last inserted descrition from the map. Somehow, I kept struggling with the regex with a variable. Anyway, a simpler solution is to just add another event handler for keyup with hard-coded map.
Thanks to #serakfalcon for (that simple solution), which we are using here:
$('#txt1').keydown(function(event) {
if(8 == event.keyCode) {
var el = $(this);
el.val(el.val().replace(/\[(Tab|Enter|Shift|Ctrl|Alt|Break|Caps Lock|Esc|Space|Page (Up|Down)|End|Home|Left|Up|Right|Down|Insert|Delete)\]$/,' '));
$("#txt2").val(el.val());
}
});
You can check in the keydown for the last character in the input field. If it's a ] you can remove everything from the right to the last found opening bracket [. Unfortunatly this does not work if you're cursor is inside '[ ]'.
$('#textbox1').keydown(function(event) {
if(8 == event.keyCode) {
var element = $(this),
value = element.val(),
lastChar = value.slice(-1);
if(lastChar == ']') {
var lastIndex = value.lastIndexOf('['),
index = value.length - lastIndex;
element.val(value.slice(0, -index) + "]");
}
}
});
Fiddle
you can always use a regex.
$('#textbox1').keydown(function(event) {
if(8 == event.keyCode) {
var el = $(this);
el.val(el.val().replace(/\[(CTRL|ALT|SHIFT)\]$/,' '));
}
});

Edit: combined with abhitalks code
I know it is not the smartest idea, but I still have to do it.
Our users want to use ENTER like TAB.
So, the best I came up with is this:
Ext.override(Ext.form.field.Base, {
initComponent: function() {
this.callParent(arguments);
this.on('afterrender', function() {
var me=this;
this.getEl().on('keypress',function (e){
if(e.getKey() == 13) {
me.nextNode().focus();
}
});
});
}
});
But it still does not work exactly the same way as TAB.
I mean, it works OK with input fields, but not other controls.
May be there is some low-level solution.
Any ideas?
In the past I've attached the listener to the document, something like this:
Ext.getDoc().on('keypress', function(event, target) {
// get the form field component
var targetEl = Ext.get(target.id),
fieldEl = targetEl.up('[class*=x-field]') || {},
field = Ext.getCmp(fieldEl.id);
if (
// the ENTER key was pressed...
event.ENTER == event.getKey() &&
// from a form field...
field &&
// which has valid data.
field.isValid()
) {
// get the next form field
var next = field.next('[isFormField]');
// focus the next field if it exists
if (next) {
event.stopEvent();
next.focus();
}
}
});
For Ext.form.field.Text and similar xtypes there is a extra config enableKeyEvents that needs to be set before the keypress/keydown/keyup events fire.
The enableKeyEvents config option needs to be set to true as it's default to false.
ExtJS API Doc
Disclaimer: I'm not an expert on ExtJs.
That said, maybe try something like:
if (e.getKey() === 13) {
me.blur();
return false; // cancel key event to prevent the [Enter] behavior
}
You could try this
if (e.getKey() === 13) {
e.keyCode = Ext.EventObject.TAB
this.fireEvent(e, {// any additional options
});
}
Haven't really tried this ever myself.
Apologize if this is answered already. Went through some of the related questions and google, but ultimately failed to see why this isn't working.
My code is as follows
<iframe id="editor"></iframe>
editorWindow = document.getElementById('editor').contentWindow;
isCtrlDown = false;
function loadEditor()
{
editorWindow.document.designMode = "on";
editorWindow.document.onkeyup = function(e) {
if (e.which == 91) isCtrlDown = false;
}
editorWindow.document.onkeydown = handleKeyDown;
}
function handleKeyDown(e)
{
if (e.which == 91) isCtrlDown = true;
if (e.which == 66 && isCtrlDown) editFont('bold');
if (e.which == 73 && isCtrlDown) editFont('italic');
}
function editFont(a,b)
{
editorWindow.document.execCommand(a,false,b);
editorWindow.focus();
}
This code works perfectly in Chrome, but the keyboard shortcuts do not work in Firefox. In fact, in Firefox it does not seem to register the events for keyup/keydown at all.
Am I doing something grossly wrong here that is mucking up Firefox?
For editable documents, you need to use addEventListener to attach key events rather than DOM0 event handler properties:
editorWindow.document.addEventListener("keydown", handleKeyDown, false);
If you care about IE 6-8, you will need to test for the existence addEventListener and add the attachEvent equivalent if it is missing.
Try using:
editorWindow = document.getElementById('editor').frameElement;
I'm not sure this will solve the issue, it may also be:
editorWindow = document.getElementById('editor').contentDocument;
Or even possibly:
editorWindow = document.getElementById('editor').frameElement.contentDocument;
One thing you can do is put the entire string in a try statement to catch any errors and see if the content is being grabbed from within the iframe.
try { editorWindow = document.getElementById('editor').contentWindow; } catch(e) { alert(e) };
The only other thought I have is that you're typing into a textbox which is within an iframe, and you may possibly have to add the onkeydown event to that specific item, such as:
var editorWindow = document.getElementById('editor').contentDocument;
var textbox = editorWindow.getElementById('my_textbox');
function loadEditor()
{
editorWindow.document.designMode = "on";
textbox.onkeydown = function(e) {
alert('hello there');
}
}
I hope one of these is the solution. I often find when it comes to cross-platform functionality it often boils down to a little trial and error.
Good Luck!
