I did a quick test of Safari 3.1.1 with today's tip of tree WebKit
(2008-04-28) on Mac OS X 10.5.2, with an Apple Wireless Keyboard <http://images.apple.com/keyboard/images/gallery/wireless_1_20070813.jpg

The results I got exactly match <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2006Nov/att-0047/keyCode-ie.htm
>, with three exceptions:
1) For Caps Lock, when turning it on, I get
20 - -
And when turning it off, I get:
20 - 20
I believe this is a bug.
2) For Esc, I get:
27 - 27
So, no keypress event. Probably also a bug.
3) I couldn't find a Pause button.
I also noticed some keys missing from that keyCode-ie chart, including
these four — ~`-+ — as well as the arrow keys.
I'm not sure what the column for keyup in that chart is good for. At
the moment it just seems to document that Tab moves you out of the
field.
