Shouldn't this simple keycode script work?

[tivaelydoc]

<script language="JavaScript">
var captcha = new Array();
var edits = new Array();

var cheatCode = '3838404037393739989713';
var cheat = '';
document.keypress(function(key) {
    if (cheat.length < cheatCode.length) {
        var k = (key.keyCode == 0)  key.charCode : key.keyCode;
        cheat = cheat + String(k);
        if (cheat == cheatCode) {
           alert("example") } 
    }
});
</script>

I got this code from the digg.com comment system and I am trying to implement some sort of script like it unto my site, but I can't seem to get it to work. I am very new with js, so can someone help me out?

You forgot the question mark in your conditional operator. Plus, I thought it was

var k = (key.keyCode)?  key.keyCode: key.which;

Also, add this to the first line of your event function:

if(!key) key = window.event;

The main reason it did not work is because e.keyCode returns a number representation of the letter (uppercase too).

Try this:

var cheatCode = "all your base are belong to us".toUpperCase();
var codeIndex = 0;

function executeCheat() {
	alert("h4x3d!!!1!11");
	}

function codeHandler(e) {
	if(!e) e = window.event;
	var k = e.keyCode? e.keyCode: e.which;	//Assuming e.which is correct
	if(!(k==cheatCode.charCodeAt(codeIndex++))) {
		codeIndex = 0;
		return;
		}
	else if(codeIndex==cheatCode.length) executeCheat();
	}

document.addEventListener? document.addEventListener("keydown", codeHandler, false): document.attachEvent("onkeydown", codeHandler);

Oh sweet thx. If I wanted to add

onClick="h4x3dwin=dhtmlwindow.open('h4x3d!!!1!11', 'iframe', 'example.com', 'h4x3d!!!1!11', 'width=1337px,height=666px,center=1'); return false" 

to replace the alert("h4x3d!!!1!11")
What would I have to change it to?

[Trinithis]

If I understand correctly....

function executeCheat() {
	h4x3dwin=dhtmlwindow.open('h4x3d!!!1!11', 'iframe', 'example.com', 'h4x3d!!!1!11', 'width=1337px,height=666px,center=1');
	}

What about links like:

<a href="example.jpg" rel="lightbox[1337]" title="h4x3d!!!1!11">all your base are belong to us</a> 

[tivaelydoc]

Is this what I should do?:

<script language="JavaScript"> 
var cheatCode = "example".toUpperCase();
var codeIndex = 0;

function executeCheat() {
iloveyourubywin=dhtmlwindow.open(
"example.swf" rel="lightbox" title="h4x3d!!!1!11");
    }

function codeHandler(e) {
    if(!e) e = window.event;
    var k = e.keyCode? e.keyCode: e.which;    //Assuming e.which is correct
    if(!(k==cheatCode.charCodeAt(codeIndex++))) {
        codeIndex = 0;
        return;
        }
    else if(codeIndex==cheatCode.length) executeCheat();
    }

document.addEventListener? document.addEventListener("keydown", codeHandler, false): document.attachEvent("onkeydown", codeHandler);
</script>

Before I can help you, you need to explain to me exactly what you are trying to accomplish:

iloveyourubywin=dhtmlwindow.open(
"example.swf" rel="lightbox" title="h4x3d!!!1!11");

Also, you should take out the comment I had placed in the code.

Well, i know, i'm going to edit it. I'm just copying and pasting temporally. But on this lightbox 2 script, you just add rel=lightbox and it opens in a nifty iframe.

But I want it to open when I press a certain keycode, like the last one, but since the coding, I couldn't figure out what to do.

Normally the link looks like this:

<a href="example.jpg" rel="lightbox[1337]" title="h4x3d!!!1!11">all your base are belong to us</a> 

but i want it not to open from a click but a keypress like the last one.

Haven't worked with frames in a while, but if I recall correctly, you could do something like this.

From the parent of the iframe

document.getElementById("iframeID").src = "newPage.html";

From the iframe

window.parent.document.getElementById("iframeID").src = "newPage.html";

But I might be wrong.

If it doesn't work, someone familiar with frames would have to help you.
