Anybody else on Mac OS X unable to type a colon in the interactive prompt?
I tried it in both Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4, and neither works.
Apparently it's not just this site, though. According to http://www.cambiaresearch.com/c4/702b8cd1-e5b0-42e6-83ac-25f0306e3e25/Javascript-Char-Codes-Key-Codes.aspx http://www.cambiaresearch.com/c4/702b8cd1-e5b0-42e6-83ac-25f... it's only sending a shift (KeyCode 16) when I try typing a colon...
On my Ubuntu system, the colon works just fine. Is this a known bug?
- apgwoz 17y agoI wasn't able to type a colon either. I also wasn't able to type '+', '_', '<', '>', '|', '?', and '~'. These all have the common pattern of being shifted on a normal US keyboard, so I'm going to assume it's related to that.
- adrinavarro 17y agospanish qwerty keyboard layout here, works fine in safari 4 (osx), but I also use 'shift' to type colons, etc... maybe a fixed bug?
- s3graham 17y agoHmm, sorry about that, I only tried the demo console on Ubuntu and Windows, and only with a US keyboard. I haven't found a non-insane way of doing it.. see f.e. http://www.quirksmode.org/js/keys.html http://www.quirksmode.org/js/keys.html Anyone have any pointers? (or patches? :)
