Listen for the Delete Key Using MooTools
I saw an interesting ticket hit the MooTools Lighthouse system recently. A user reported that they could not use the following code snippet to listen for the delete key:
var isdel = Event.Keys.delete;
While that generally works, it does not work for the delete key because "delete" is a reserved word. Instead, you must listen for the delete key with this code snippet:
var isdel = Event.Keys['delete'];
Very interesting. As flexible as Moo's language is, you can't get around the reserved words!

CSS has become more and more powerful over the past few years and CSS transforms are a prime example. CSS transforms allow for sophisticated, powerful transformations of HTML elements. One or more transformations can be applied to a given element and transforms can even be animated...
mootools rules! :)
Thanks for keeping us informed, David!
So did you let them know about your solution? :D
Or did they already take care of that in the docs?
(not to sound like a jack*ss, of course, just curious)
