Javascript issue: keydown, keypress, keyup events cause quick search to initiate with the division key on the keypad and slash key on the keyboard. I am trying to program a graphic representation of a 10 key pad and the division (/) sign is problematic for roll over and processing based on key events. How can I get around this? further notes: Safari also has problems with key events and the division key(s) but no search function connected. Thankyou for time and attention
