Does not work in Firefox

Closed this issue 10 years ago · 2 comments

If I open

~/.atom/packages/keyboard-localization/keybinding-generator/generate-keybindings.html

in Firefox nothing happens on key press. In Chrome everything works fine.

Also doesn't work in IE 10. It's only recognizing a keypress event (and not keydown as in Chrome) and it's not generating JSON keybindings. Fine in Chrome

Looks like only Chrome and Safari support KeyboardEvent.keyIdentifier which is defined in the old draft of DOM Level 3 Events:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent.keyCode

Atom uses KeyboardEvent.keyIdentifier interally to identify which key is pressed. So i suggest using chrome for generating keymaps as atom runs with the same webkit/blink engine.
