Webmaster Forum / ColdFusion / Getting Started / July 2007Keyboard shortcut for list box selection
Hi, I am trying to use the keyboard shortcuts to allow multiple selections in a list box. I haven't been able to find anything that can work. Once I make one selection and as I move down the list using the up and down keys, my selection is no more selected. Has someone implemented something similar or does anyone have any ideas ? Thanks This is one of the reasons I don't use selects that allow multiple selections. Check boxes are much more user freindly in my opinion, on PC: hold down CTRL key while pressing up/down keys to move from one item to another; press SPACEBAR to select the item you are on. i suppose you know what holding down SHIFT key does... i believe on Mac OPTION key is the equivalent of CTRL key on pc, but i am not sure holding it down will have the same effect in the case of multi-select listboxes... --- Azadi Saryev Sabai-dee.com http://www.sabai-dee.com was wrong: on Macs it is COMMAND key... --- Azadi Saryev Sabai-dee.com http://www.sabai-dee.com Hi, Thanks for your response. We had tried the Ctrl, spacebar, Shift option. It had not worked for us, hence I thought there might be another way of doing this. Does anyone know of any other way this might be accomplished? Thanks which browser(s) have you tested it in? --- Azadi Saryev Sabai-dee.com http://www.sabai-dee.com ok, i see... i have tested it now in ff2, ie7, opera9, netscape8 and safari for win, and my suggested key combinations worked only in ff and netscape... --- Azadi Saryev Sabai-dee.com http://www.sabai-dee.com |
