You can just add onkeypress="microsoftKeyPress()" in the tag, same as the other.
But note that they're onload and onkeypress, not the capitalised versions.

HTML is case insensitive, it doesn't matter.

Well the onkeypress event goes on the object you want the key press to occur on.
I don't think you can just set an onkeypress event for the body. (I might be wrong)

You can,but the keypress has to occur on an element that can trigger one. Then I think it bubbles
