[1] In Internet Explorer 9, as well as in all versions of Firefox, the Windows key is reported as "OS" instead of as "Meta". This will be changed in Firefox per Firefox bug 1232918. Until that's fixed, these keys are returned as "OS" by Firefox: VK_LWIN (0x5B) and VK_RWIN (0x5C) on Windows, and GDK_KEY_Super_L (0xFFEB), GDK_KEY_Super_R (0xFFEC), GDK_KEY_Hyper_L (0xFFED), and GDK_KEY_Hyper_R (0xFFEE) on Linux.

[2] Internet Explorer 9 reports "Scroll" instead of "ScrollLock" for the Scroll Lock key.

[3] Firefox did not add support for the Symbol key until Firefox 37.

[4] Firefox generates the key value "OS" for the Super and Hyper keys, instead of "Super" and "Hyper".

[5] Chrome 67 and Firefox 63 now correctly interpret the right Alt key for keyboard layouts which map that key to AltGr. See Firefox bug Firefox bug 900750 and Chrome bug 25503 for further details.

IME and composition keys

Keys used when using an Input Method Editor (IME) to input text which can't readily be entered by simple keypresses, such as text in languages such as those which have more graphemes than there are character entry keys on the keyboard; common examples include Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Hindi.

Some keys are common across multiple languages, while others exist only on keyboards targeting specific languages. In addition, not all keyboards have all of these keys.

Common IME keys

KeyboardEvent.key Value Description Virtual Keycode
Windows Mac Linux Android
"AllCandidates" The All Candidates key, which starts multi-candidate mode, in which multiple candidates are displayed for the ongoing input. GDK_KEY_MultipleCandidate (0xFF3D

Qt::Key_Henkan (0x01001123)
KEYCODE_HENKAN (214)
"Dead" A dead "combining" key; that is, a key which is used in tandem with other keys to generate accented and other modified characters. If pressed by itself, it doesn't generate a character. If you wish to identify which specific dead key was pressed (in cases where more than one exists), you can do so by examining the KeyboardEvent's associated [`compositionupdate`](/zh-CN/docs/Web/API/Element/compositionupdate_event) event's data property. See Dead keycodes for Linux below
"FinalMode" The Final (Final Mode) key is used on some Asian keyboards to enter final mode when using IMEs. VK_FINAL (0x18)
"GroupFirst" Switches to the first character group on an ISO/IEC 9995 keyboard. Each key may have multiple groups of characters, each in its own column. Pressing this key instructs the device to interpret keypresses as coming from the first column on subsequent keystrokes. GDK_KEY_ISO_First_Group (0xFE0C)
"GroupLast" Switches to the last character group on an ISO/IEC 9995 keyboard. GDK_KEY_ISO_Last_Group (0xFE0E)

Qt::Key_Muhenkan (0x01001122)
KEYCODE_MUHENKAN (213)
"PreviousCandidate" The Previous Candidate key. Selects the previous possible match for the ongoing input. GDK_KEY_PreviousCandidate (0xFF3E)

Qt::Key_SingleCandidate (0x0100113C)

[1] On the X Window System, the Compose key is called the Multi key.

[2] The NonConvert key is reported as "Nonconvert" instead of the correct "NonConvert" by Internet Explorer 9 and Firefox versions 36 and earlier.

[3] The Process key currently returns "Unidentified" in Firefox and Internet Explorer. Google Chrome returns the value of the key as if IME were not in use.

[4] Prior to Firefox 37, these keys were "Unidentified".

[5] Firefox generates the key value "AltGraph" instead of "ModeChange".

KEYCODE_ZENKAKU_HANKAKU (211)

[1] Prior to Firefox 37, the Eisu key was mapped to "RomanCharacters" by mistake.

[2] VK_HANGUL and VK_KANA share the same numeric key value on Windows, as do VK_HANJA and VK_KANJI.

[3] Prior to Firefox 37, the Hankaku (half-width) key generated the key value "HalfWidth" on Firefox. Also, this key generates the value "Unidentified" on Internet Explorer 9.

[4] Internet Explorer 9 reports "Unidentified" for the Zenkaku key; Firefox 36 and earlier identify this key as "FullWidth" on Japanese keyboard layouts and "Unidentified" on all other keyboard layouts. Firefox 37 and later, and all versions of Google Chrome, correctly return "Zenkaku".

[5] "Unidentified" in Internet Explorer 9. Firefox 36 and earlier identify the Romaji key as "RomanCharacters" on Japanese keyboards and "Unidentified" for other keyboards; this is corrected to return "Romaji" in Firefox 37 and later.

[6] This key is reported as "Unidentified" prior to Firefox 37.

Dead keycodes for Linux

Linux generates accented characters using special dead keys; these are keys which are pressed in combination with character keys to generate accented forms of those characters. You can identify which specific dead key was used (if more than one exists) by examining the KeyboardEvent's associated compositionupdate event's data property.

You can find a table of the dead keys and the characters they can be used with to generate accented or otherwise special characters on Linux using GTK

The value of data will be one of the following:

Function keys

While various platforms support different numbers of the general-purpose function keys, such as F1-F12 (or F1-F10, or F1-F15, or...), the first few are specifically defined as follows. If more function keys are available, their names continue the pattern here by continuing to increment the numeric portion of each key's name, so that, for example, "F24" is a valid key value.

Media controller keys

Because modern remote controls for media devices often include buttons beyond the basic controls covered elsewhere in this document, key values are defined for a broad array of these additional buttons.

The values below are derived in part form a number of consumer electronics technical specifications:

备注: Remote controls typically include keys whose values are already defined elsewhere, such as under Multimedia keys or Audio control keys. Those keys' values will match what's documented in those tables.
