(I use Chrome 3.0.195.10)

I periodically need to use the Lish AJAX console in areas where I can't SSH. However, it's incredibly annoying that Lish doesn't support backspace or arrow keys in Chrome. If I ever make a typo, it can be incredibly dangerous, because the only way to clear the command prompt is to hit enter!

Are there any plans to add backspace or arrow key support to the AJAX console in Chrome?

It appears to work in IE6. It does not work in Chrome.

Works in Firefox too. Maybe a problem with Chrome then? That's just ajaxterm, maybe see if there's a bug with Chrome and ajaxterm.

Chrome uses a different Javascript engine then Firefox (and IE), so it working in Firefox (or IE), doesn't mean it will work in Chrome.

It looks like Ajaxterm hasn't had a significant update in ~3 years, so it may be up to Linode to fix directly.

I should note that Mibbit does support up/down arrows for message/command history, though, so it's probably not impossible to fix in Chrome.

Does control-H work for deletes? (maybe need to do "stty erase '^H'" first)
