    <p>I'm writing a Chrome extension that launches a script with a keyboard shortcut. It works fine on most pages but I realized that on Gmail it doesn't: it seems that all keyboard events are captured by Gmail and are not bubbled up to my function.</p> <p>I have a content script (in Chrome extension this is added to any page you want) that has (simplified of course):</p> <pre><code>document.body.addEventListener('keypress', myFunction, true); function myFunction(event) { console.log("yay, Gmail didn't let me down!"); } </code></pre> <p>But actually, Gmail does let me down. I know that the script <em>is</em> loaded. I tried different variations of <code>window.addEventListener</code> and other event types to no avail.</p> <p>Does anybody know of a way to bypass this? I tried to see if GreaseMonkey script could do it, that brought me here: <a href="http://code.google.com/p/gmail-greasemonkey/" rel="noreferrer">http://code.google.com/p/gmail-greasemonkey/</a> but that didn't help me.</p> <p>Thanks!</p>

    1. COYou could ask all your users to disable keyboard shortcuts in their Gmail settings. But they might not like that. And I'm not sure if it would work anyway.

    2. CONo that's not really feasible. My extension isn't doing much honestly, so I can't imagine anybody taking that trade-off. Besides, I'm the only user right now, so I wouldn't want that :)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
