Definition and Usage
The location property returns a number that indicates the location of a key
on the keyboard or device.
The number is represented by 4 constants:
0. DOM_KEY_LOCATION_STANDARD:
The key is not pressed on the right or left side of the
keyboard, and was not pressed on the numeric keypad (this value represents
almost every key on the keyboard, e.g. "A", "U", "SPACE" or "5")
1. DOM_KEY_LOCATION_LEFT:
A left key was pressed (e.g. the left "CTRL" key or left
"ALT" key on a standard 101 key US keyboard)
2. DOM_KEY_LOCATION_RIGHT:
A right key was pressed (e.g. the right "CTRL" key or
right "CTRL" key on a standard 101 key US keyboard)
3. DOM_KEY_LOCATION_NUMPAD:
The key was pressed on the numeric keypad (e.g. the "2"
key on the right side on a standard keyboard)
Note: The location property can only be used on the
onkeydown and onkeyup event, not
onkeypress.
Note: This property is read-only.
