F5 is the browser refresh key for many browsers.
IMO, you should not be changing this to be controlled by your page.

In VB it is simple...

VB

Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
Select Case KeyCode
Case vbKeyF2
Call Proc_Event1
Case vbKeyF3
Call Proc_Event2

End Select
End Sub

I imagine it would not be too different in asp.net

Hope that helps

(BTW, Don't assign F1, F5 or F12)
