JavaScript Keycode List – Keypress Event Key Codes for Enter, Space, Backspace, and More

JavaScript keyboard events help you capture user interactions with the keyboard.

Like many other JavaScript events, the KeyboardEvent interface provides all the required properties and methods for handling every keystroke a user makes using the keyboard.

There have been many articles written about how they work and how to use them. At the same time, W3.org keeps updating the specification by introducing new properties, deprecating existing ones, and marking certain code as legacy.

Because of this, it is essential for web developers to keep learning about the KeyboardEvent interface to know what exactly they should use and what’s no longer relevant.

In this article, we will learn about:

  • The KeyboardEvent interface.
  • The keyboard event types we need to focus on.
  • The keyboard event types we may not ever need.
  • Which properties you need in practice and how different browsers handle them.
  • What is deprecated, and what’s in use.
  • A playground to try things out as we learn.
  • Finally, the current list of key codes for reference and future use.

The KeyboardEvent interface and the event types

The KeyboardEvent interface provides information using the defined constants, properties, and a single method (as of January 2021). It extends the UIEvent interface which eventually extends the Event interface.

keyboardevent_hierarchy

There are primarily three keyboard event types, keydown , keypress and, keyup . We can get contextual information about these events from the KeyboardEvent interface’s properties and methods.

You can add each of these event types to an HTML element or document object using the addEventListener method. Here is an example of listening to a keydown event on an element whose id is, ‘type-here’:

let elem = document.getElementById('type-here'); elem.addEventListener("keydown", function (event) < // The parameter event is of the type KeyboardEvent addRow(event); >);

Alternatively, you can use the handler methods like, onKeydown(event) , onKeyup(event) , onKeypress(event) with the element to handle keyboard events. Here is an example of handling a keyup event on an input element:

If you print the event object in the browser’s console, you will see all its properties and methods along with the ones it inherits from the UIEvent and Event interfaces.

Try This Interactive Keyboard Event Playground

Before we go any further, how about a playground to explore all the keyboard events, their properties, characteristics, and so on? I think it will be awesome to use it alongside this article and beyond.

Just focus your cursor anywhere in the app embedded below, and type any key to see the contextual information about it.

You can also filter out the events you want by unchecking the checkboxes at the top. So give it a try:
