Supported events for Web.fireEvent?

I'm trying to send a keyup event using Web.fireEvent, but it doesn't seem to work. The webapp I'm testing performs validation on a userName field every time a keyup event is sent (onkeyup="..."). It works when tesitng manually, but not when I automate it.

 

Is keyup supported? What events are/are not supported?

 

Regards,

chris

I am afraid events that require a parameter to be passed in will not work. 

So a keyup can be fired but there is no way at the moment to support information about the key codes and various masks like if shift was pressed or not.  

 

This would be a great feature enhancement

Need to refresh this conversation.

 

I'm currently trying to do the same thing as Chris.  The webpage requires me to use a filterbox that's created from javascript.  The script requires a "keyup" for the filter to activate.  Is there a way to create the keyup event?  The "fireEvent" action does not appear to support "keyup".
