Javascript Character Codes (Key Codes)

WORKING WITH JAVASCRIPT KEY EVENT

 We can get the keycode in key events like onkeyup, onkeydown, onClick, onKeypress.....

window.onkeyup = function (event) {

if(event.keyCode == 38 || event.which == 38){

// here you can put your up arrow functionality code

}else if(event.keyCode == 40 || event.which == 40){      

// here you can put your down arrow functionality code

}   

if (event.keyCode == 27 || event.which == 27) {

// here you can put your esc key functionality code

like window.close();

}

 

}
