JavaScript Shift + :

dptalt

Is there a way in JavaScript to detect if the users press Shift + :? The below code does not seem to work. if (event.shiftKey && event.keyCode == 186) event.keyCode = 9;

<input type=text id="txtBox" onkeyup="test()">
<script>
<!--
function test() {
if (document.getElementById("txtBox").value == "+")
{
myalert();
}
}

function myalert() 
{
    alert("Shift++++ :)");
}

//-->
</script>
</html>

;) what will be happen you press the "shift" and "+"?:confused:

When I say Shift + : I mean when the user presses and holds the Shift key while pressing the Colon/Semi colon key.
