This issue may cause some problems if you think that it will not fired on FireFox with some special key,&lt;br&gt;so the code inside the event handler may kill it.<br /> <br /> 2. I found in some places of our code that you used the &#039;&#039;&#039;charCode &#039;&#039;&#039;property of event object to get the code of pressed key on FireFox, but it just has meaning when the&lt;br&gt;key is not the special key. As you already know, in FireFox we have 2 properties of event object : &#039;&#039;&#039;keyCode &amp;amp; charCode&#039;&#039;&#039; to store the code of pressed key. Plz be&lt;br&gt;noticed that normally we get the code from &#039;&#039;&#039;charCode &#039;&#039;&#039;but if that&#039;s a special key, you must use the &#039;&#039;&#039;keyCode&#039;&#039;&#039;.</div>
