User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/67.0.3396.62 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce: I'm a developer I have put a validation for key restriction. input field should not accept %,& . Everything is working fine in other browsers. then i came to know that arrow keys are not working in firefox. so I found keycodes for that. for ex. left arrow is having keycode '37' for firefox. so I have removed restriction from code '37'. Actual results: Left arrow is working fine after removing restriction from keycode '37'. But my validation goes wrong as it started accepting '%' in input field. then i came to know that both the keys are sharing same key code '37'. And I'm facing validation issue due to this. Expected results: Keycode should be unique for each key. if '%' is having keycode 37. then it should not be assigned to any other key of keyboard.
