This will workas required in NN4 and MSIE4:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--
function checkFirst(url) {
location.href = url;
}
//--></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2"><!--
var when = new Date();
var what = '';
function netscapeKeyPress(e) {
if (e.modifiers == 2) {
// Ctrl key pressed
when = new Date();
what = 'Ctrl';
}
}
function microsoftKeyPress() {
if (window.event.ctrlKey) {
// Ctrl key pressed
when = new Date();
what = 'Ctrl';
}
}
if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape') {
window.captureEvents(Event.KEYPRESS);
window.onKeyPress = netscapeKeyPress;
}
function checkFirst(url) {
var now = new Date();
var difference = Date.UTC(now.getYear(),now.getMonth(),now.getDate(),now.getHours(),now.getMinutes(),now.getSeconds())
- Date.UTC(when.getYear(),when.getMonth(),when.getDate(),when.getHours(),when.getMinutes(),when.getSeconds());
if (difference < 1000)
location.href = url;
}
//--></SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY onKeyPress="microsoftKeyPress()">
<A HREF="javascript:checkFirst()"><IMG SRC="picture.gif" WIDTH="100" HEIGHT="100" BORDER="0"></A>
</BODY>
</HTML>
