To avoid this Cross Browser confusion, I asked you to use the Jquery which is a Cross Compatible Browser.

You can see the below link, which explains the Javascript different behavior in Cross Browser. In IE --> keyCode will work, but in Mozillo, it wont. For Mozilla You need to use as charCode. http://www.javascriptkit.com/javatutors/javascriptkey2.shtml Refer this link too to have a clear idea http://forums.devshed.com/javascript-development-115/event-keycode-problem-in-mozilla-274765.html http://bytes.com/topic/javascript/answers/648090-event-keycode-9-tab-event-doesnt-work-firefox Properties Description altKey, ctrlKey, shiftKey Boolean properties that indicate whether the Alt, Ctrl, Meta, and Shift keys were pressed at time of the event. metaKey Boolean property that indicate whether the Meta key was pressed at the time of the event. NS/Firefox only. charCode Property indicating the Unicode for the key pressed. Use String.fromCharCode(charCode) to convert code to string. NS/Firefox only. keycode Property indicating the Unicode for the key pressed. Use String.fromCharCode(keyCode) to convert code to string. type A string indicating the type of event, such as "mouseover", "click", etc. which Legacy property indicating the Unicode for the key pressed. Identical to "charCode", except this property works in NS4 as well. NS/Firefox only.

Hi Suthish, Here is the javascript code that i am using for validation:- // Phone Validation function Validate() { if (!((event.keyCode >= 48 && event.keyCode event.returnValue=false; } It works fine in IE but not in Mozilla and Google Chrome. Any Idea? Please help.

Suthish Nair · Answer

Still you didn't shared the JavaScript here that trying to use. Its difficult to answer your thread without seeing it.

Hi Vijay, If your application will be executed in different browser means, you should use Jquery for client side validation. Thats the only Javascript Validation solution, or else you need to write a seperate code for each browser. Jquery is compatible in all the browsers.
