Currently been working on a flash project where the ESC sequence was of much use. The ESC key got captured perfectly in FireFox 2.0, IE 7 but failed in IE6.
Here are the screenshots of IE6 version on which I have tested

Here is the flashplayer version checked on Adobe
Here is the Flash Actionscript code:
1: this.createTextField("mytext_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 100, 20);
2: var keyListener:Object = new Object();
3: keyListener.onKeyDown = function() {
4: if (Key.isDown(Key.ESCAPE) ) {
5: trace("ESC key pressed");
6: mytext_txt.text ="ESC key pressed";
7: }
8: }
9: Key.addListener(keyListener);
10: // be sure to disable key shortcuts in flash IDE during testing
Can any one tell me where I have gone wrong. Is it something to do with IE6 or any hack, needs to be done on the Actionscript. AS Guru’s looking for your help.
