Have pressing backspace as trigger on a slide but not in a text entry control.

May 16, 2016

I need backspace to take the user to the previous slide, but not when the user is entering text.

Is there a way to do this? 

If there was a way to tell when a control got the focus, I could set a flag when the user was in a text entry.

Hi Kit!

What browser are you testing your content in? I do see this behavior with HTML5 in Chrome, but it's reading the backspace as a browser key stroke instead of for your course.

I know there can be browser limitations, but I will share this with our QA Team to further review.
