### Properties

### autoActivate

{Boolean} Activate the control when it is added to a map. Default is true.

### slideFactor

Pixels to slide by.

### observeElement

{DOMelement|String} The DOM element to handle keys for. You can use the map div here, to have the navigation keys work when the map div has the focus. If undefined the document is used.

### Constructor

### OpenLayers.Control.KeyboardDefaults

### Functions

### draw

> draw: function()

Create handler.

### defaultKeyPress

> defaultKeyPress: function ( | evt | )

When handling the key event, we only use evt.keyCode. This holds some drawbacks, though we get around them below. When interpretting the keycodes below (including the comments associated with them), consult the URL below. For instance, the Safari browser returns “IE keycodes”, and so is supported by any keycode labeled “IE”.
