At the moment I post this, Firefox is at 49.0.2 version but the bug began to appear since the version 48. I tried a vanilla JS detection, didn't work:

document.addEventListener ("keydown", function (zEvent) {
    if (zEvent.ctrlKey  &&  zEvent.altKey  &&  zEvent.code === "KeyE") {
        alert("CTRL+Alt+E pressed!");
    }
});

I tried Mootools-More detection, didn't work:

var myKeyboard = new Keyboard({
    defaultEventType: 'keydown',
    events: {
        'ctrl+alt+e': toggleTopbar
    }
});
function toggleTopbar() {
    alert("CTRL+Alt+E pressed!");
}
myKeyboard.activate();

Didn't try jQuery though.

Fiddle: Detecting combination keypresses (Control, Alt, Shift)? (credits to Brock Adams)

Side note: Also, in the fiddle above, zEvent.code always returns the english keys even if you are on an AZERTY keyboard (french keyboard). Maybe the bug is only on AZERTY keyboards (who knows), but I didn't have any other keyboards.

What is the right code to make it work on Firefox ?

  • This isn't the right place to make firefox bug reports. What specifically are you asking? – scrappedcola Oct 31 '16 at 16:06
  • @scrappedcola It may be a firefox bug or may be not and I just missed something when I wrote my code. If it turns out to be a confirmed firefox bug, I'm going to ask elsewhere, but not before. So the question is: What is the right code to make it work on Firefox ? – Nomentsoa Andrianjatovo Nov 02 '16 at 05:38
