As you may have noticed I haven't yet presented a revision of the WCAG
JavaScript document, as I'd promised about two weeks ago. I was far
busier than I expected.
Nonetheless I have done some research into accessible event pairs,
which is now available at
http://www.quirksmode.org/js/events_pairs.html
Conclusions:
* mouseover: pair with focus
* mouseout: pair with blur
* click: pairing not necessary
* dblclick: don't know
* mousedown: keydown is the least bad option
* mouseup: keyup is the least bad option
* mousemove: impossible to emulate without a mouse
I feel these conclusions, or other conclusions based on similar
research, should end up in a WCAG JavaScript document.
