Sorry if this is an obvious question, but I am new to javascript. I'm simply trying to display a message that shows which key the user has pressed, however, this script will not work.

Code:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Descriptive Links</TITLE>
<script Language="javascript">
  function describe(text) {
    window.status = text;
    return true;
  }
  function clearstatus() {
    window.status = "";
  }
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY onKeyPress = "window.alert('You pressed ' + String.fromCharCode(event.which));">
<H1>Descriptive Links</H1>
<P>Move the mouse pointer over one of these links to view a description</P>
<ul>
<li><a href="order.html" onMouseOver="return(describe('Order a product'));"
       onMouseOut = "clearstatus();">Order Form</a>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
