clarify charOrCode

[sol]

charOrCode in keyboard events is at the mom. only available if has("dom-addeventlistener") fails. i dont think this is intentionaly. in the docu the charOrCode option is still mentioned. in the tickets i found some talk about deprication.

please clarify!

AFAIK charOrCode is available on all events registered like

dojo.connect(node, "keypress", handler);

It's not there when you use dojo/on or "keydown".

If the above code isn't working for you on mozilla/gecko you can attach a test case.

thanks for clarifying. since the docu wasnt clear about it. or at least my understanding of it wasnt. i made a

grep -r -i charOrCode *

in the dojo directory on.js came up as a hit and i studied the code. why is it present in on.js if it is only needed in connect? ah nevermind im not using it anyway.

thx again

Note that charOrCode, like dojo.connect(), is deprecated (so it's good you're not using it). I imagine it's in on.js just as an easy way to maintain backwards compatibility for dojo.connect(), which is built on top of dojo/on.
