CHtmlView already handles backspace, if you want to override it you will
have to load an accelerator table and use that.

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CHTMLViewView, CHtmlView)
   ON_COMMAND(ID_BACKSPACE,OnBackspace)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

void CHTMLViewView::OnInitialUpdate()
{
   CHtmlView::OnInitialUpdate();
   m_hAccel =
::LoadAccelerators(::AfxGetInstanceHandle(),MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_ACCELERATOR1));
   Navigate2(_T("http://www.msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/"),NULL,NULL);
}

BOOL CHTMLViewView::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
   if (::TranslateAccelerator(m_hWnd,m_hAccel,pMsg) == 0)
   {
      return CHtmlView::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
   }
}

void CHTMLViewView::OnBackspace()
{
}

Hey all,

I have a CMDIChildFrm that implements a CHtmlView. Problem is, the
application has the backspace and delete keys defined as accelerators
for some menu items, which are disabled when this form is
instantiated. If I leave them disabled, backspace and delete keys
don't work (are "dead" keys). If I remove the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI
that disables it, I get shloads of errors. I just want the delete and
backspace keys to work for this form.

Help!

Thanks!
