javascript problem in IE v5.

[Guest]

Hi,

I got this problem, I developed my asp.net c# apps in my own pc that has
IE6, and I recently moved it onto the server that is using IE v5. I found out
that my javascript is not compatible with IE5. Can someone please help me to
spot where and why there is now an error in my javascript ? I have listed it
below:

<script language="javascript">
function CheckKey() {
if (event.keyCode == 13) { //enter
document.getElementById("btnRQn").focus();
}
if (event.keyCode == 9) { //tab
document.getElementById("btnRQn").focus();
}
if (event.keyCode == 27) { //esc
document.getElementById("btnRQn").focus();
}
if (event.keyCode >= 166 && event.keyCode <= 172) {
document.getElementById("lblDisplayName").focus();
}
}
</script>

Many thanks.
Andrew.

Enable JavaScript error reporting in your browser and it should easily show
up in your debugger plus you'll vbe able to make tries in the command
window...

getElementById is your problem. Simply use document.all instead.
This also works in IE6

But not in Firefox, Safari, etc.

actually IE 5.5 supports getElementById, but is good coding pratice to
check:

function myGetlElementById(id)
{
if (document.getElementById)
return document.getElementById(id);
else if (document.all)
return document.all[id];
return null;
}
