             Summary: rich:hotKey not working in 4.2.2
                 Key: RF-12368
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12368
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 4.2.2.Final
         Environment: JSF 2.1, RichFaces 4.2.2
            Reporter: Ulf Liller
         Attachments: FacesTest.zip

I am trying to catch backspace key presses to prevent the browser from processing them and doing history.back() which screws up our site's navigation.

The following works fine with JSF 1.2 and RichFaces 3.3.3:
{code:xml}
<rich:hotKey key="backspace" handler="return false;" disableInInput="true"/>
{code}
However we are trying to upgrade to RichFaces 4 and with that version it ceases to work.

I will attach a sample (my)Eclipse project. I have tested it with JSF 1.2 (mojarra 1.2.15) and RichFaces 3.3.3 (which works) and JSF 2.1 (mojarra 2.1.11) and RichFaces 4.2.2 (which doesn't).

As a workaround I found out that calling jQuery directly and disabling the hotkey there is fine in both versions.
