Hi Lee,
I only getting the code on the screen on my Mac. The Mac does not have vixen on, so I can not test.
The 2 laptops and also one from work, all on xp are not showing the code on the screen.
Is there a problem with xp?.
Thanks
Colin

I don't think so. My "Haunt Controller" is XP. It is how ever a Dell 170 (berry berry old machine) I will try with a net book I have (my other laptop is a mac!).
Also are you running Vixen while trying to test? If so don't do it.
Also just click on the page somewhere to insure it has focus. What browser are you using? Also does it have JavaScript active? I'm using Chrome & Firefox.

Ok this might be the answer.
I pulled out an old T41 Ibm thinkpad laptop. The code worked and showed on the screen but never got to the 90's with the keypad. all i got was 49 (1 over the keyboard) and 74 (j) no mater what I tried.

I have now tried with safari on the xp machine. All The code is now working 96-102.
I am also getting an error in vixen.

Error when initializing loadale Kiwi_wintrigger:
Could not load file or assemly 'Microsoft.DirectXInput, Version=1.02902.0, Culture=neutral, pulicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Any Idear???.

I would suggest uninstalling DirectX and installing a new version
