在 Safari 中使用 JavaScript 触发键盘事件

我试图在 Safari 中使用 JavaScript 模拟键盘事件。

我试过这个:

var event = document.createEvent("KeyboardEvent");
event.initKeyboardEvent("keypress", true, true, null, false, false, false, false, 115, 0);

还有这个:

var event = document.createEvent("UIEvents");
event.initUIEvent("keypress", true, true, window, 1);
event.keyCode = 115;

然而,在尝试了这两种方法之后,我遇到了同样的问题: 在执行代码之后,事件对象的 keyCode/which属性被设置为 0,而不是 115

有人知道如何在 Safari 中可靠地创建和分发键盘事件吗?(如果可能的话,我更喜欢用普通的 JavaScript 实现它。)

The Mozilla Developer Network provides the following explanation:

  1. Create an event using event = document.createEvent("KeyboardEvent")
  2. Init the keyevent

using:

event.initKeyEvent (type, bubbles, cancelable, viewArg,
ctrlKeyArg, altKeyArg, shiftKeyArg, metaKeyArg,
keyCodeArg, charCodeArg)
  1. Dispatch the event using yourElement.dispatchEvent(event)

I don't see the last one in your code, maybe that's what you're missing. I hope this works in IE as well...

Did you dispatch the event correctly?

function simulateKeyEvent(character) {
var evt = document.createEvent("KeyboardEvent");
(evt.initKeyEvent || evt.initKeyboardEvent)("keypress", true, true, window,
0, 0, 0, 0,
0, character.charCodeAt(0))
var canceled = !body.dispatchEvent(evt);
if(canceled) {
// A handler called preventDefault
alert("canceled");
} else {
// None of the handlers called preventDefault
alert("not canceled");
}
}

If you use jQuery, you could do:

function simulateKeyPress(character) {
jQuery.event.trigger({ type : 'keypress', which : character.charCodeAt(0) });
}

I am working on DOM Keyboard Event Level 3 polyfill . In latest browsers or with this polyfill you can do something like this:

element.addEventListener("keydown", function(e){ console.log(e.key, e.char, e.keyCode) })


var e = new KeyboardEvent("keydown", {bubbles : true, cancelable : true, key : "Q", char : "Q", shiftKey : true});
element.dispatchEvent(e);


//If you need legacy property "keyCode"
// Note: In some browsers you can't overwrite "keyCode" property. (At least in Safari)
delete e.keyCode;
Object.defineProperty(e, "keyCode", {"value" : 666})

UPDATE:

Now my polyfill supports legacy properties "keyCode", "charCode" and "which"

var e = new KeyboardEvent("keydown", {
bubbles : true,
cancelable : true,
char : "Q",
key : "q",
shiftKey : true,
keyCode : 81
});

Additionally here is cross-browser initKeyboardEvent separately from my polyfill: (gist)

Polyfill demo

This is due to a bug in Webkit.

You can work around the Webkit bug using createEvent('Event') rather than createEvent('KeyboardEvent'), and then assigning the keyCode property. See this answer and this example.

I am not very good with this but KeyboardEvent => see KeyboardEvent is initialized with initKeyEvent .
Here is an example for emitting event on <input type="text" /> element

document.getElementById("txbox").addEventListener("keypress", function(e) {
alert("Event " + e.type + " emitted!\nKey / Char Code: " + e.keyCode + " / " + e.charCode);
}, false);


document.getElementById("btn").addEventListener("click", function(e) {
var doc = document.getElementById("txbox");
var kEvent = document.createEvent("KeyboardEvent");
kEvent.initKeyEvent("keypress", true, true, null, false, false, false, false, 74, 74);
doc.dispatchEvent(kEvent);
}, false);
<input id="txbox" type="text" value="" />
<input id="btn" type="button" value="CLICK TO EMIT KEYPRESS ON TEXTBOX" />
