 the mouse was not moving and the alt key was pressed. Is there a way
 to capture that?

Could you set up a separate onkeydown handler that looks for the alt  
key?

I could, if it made a difference. 'onkeydown' doesn't fire if only a  
modfier key is pressed. This is exactly my problem.

TIA

I understand how what you're looking for would be useful, but I don't  
know how to coerce a browser to do this, and MochiKit does not try to  
solve this problem. Please let us know what you find!

Thanks,
Beau
