Need help to implement CloseOnEscape Key Press for JQModal with IFrame

I am using JqModal in my project. Its a nice JS modal. However i need one help to attach an Close On Escape key press to the JqModal. I am loading eternal content from external URL in JqModal.

For simple Modal where no IFrame is used, its very easy to implement the CloseOnEscape key press feature.

I updated user1233802's answer for the latest version of jqModal (as of 2/21/2014):

I made it work by updating the jqModal.js file

Steps:

  1. Add option "closeOnEsc: true" to the jqModal. So the option will look something like this,

        var p = {
        overlay: 50,
        overlayClass: 'jqmOverlay',
        closeClass: 'jqmClose',
        trigger: '.jqModal',
        ajax: F,
        ajaxText: '',
        target: F,
        modal: F,
        toTop: F,
        onShow: F,
        onHide: F,
        onLoad: F,
        closeOnEsc: true
    };
    
  2. Add following code to the jqModal open function.

        var modal = $(h.w);
    
        modal.unbind("keydown");
    
        if (c.closeOnEsc) {
            modal.attr("tabindex", 0);
            modal.bind("keydown", function (event) {
                if (event.keyCode == 27) {
                    event.preventDefault();                        
                    modal.jqmHide();
                }
            });
            modal.focus();
        }

From http://forum.jquery.com/topic/jquery-jqmodal-and-the-esc-key

document.onkeydown = function(e){
    if (e == null) { // ie
       keycode = event.keyCode;
    } else { // mozilla
       keycode = e.which;
    }
    if(keycode == 27){ // escape, close box
       $('.jqmWindow').jqmHide();
     }
};

Where '.jqmQWindow' is the window or container you attached jqModal to.
