Hi there
First of all, kudos for AmiBrowser, that's really a neat trick with the backend rendering and all. Very well done!
I was surprised in seeing how well my TAWS project (
https://taws.ch) runs on it. After some more intense testing, I noticed something, though: keyboard control with the simulated HippoPlayer doesn't seem to work properly and now I finally triggered it down to why that is:
It seems that JavaScript keyboard events are... well... behaving strange, to put it mildly. Here's a test page and you'll notice the
wild things it reports with AmiBrowser when comparing to any other browsers:
https://mrupp.ch/Test/KeyTest.htmMost keys report a correct "key", but some faulty "code". "Enter" key reports "code" as F2 or even F18 on the "onkeyup" event. If you try a non u.s. keyboard layout (like german) things get mixed up even more: some events still report a "z" to be a "y", but "onkeypress" reports a correct "keyChar" nevertheless.
This has been tested with AmiBrowser 46.37 (13.02.26).
Keep up the good work and I hope that my little test page helps in tracking this down and fixing it.
Cheers,
Michael
