RE: Fw: Keyboard mapping with IBM's webfacing tool

Nope. The '+' key on the right side of the keyboard maps to a browser as
THE EXACT SAME KEY as the '+' above the equals sign.  Through an
unimaginable lack of foresight, browsers do not present scan codes, only
ASCII key values.

Thus, the only way you can manage this is if you're willing to handle
the '+' key the same way for either keystroke.  In some client
implementations I do indeed trap the '+' key and through JavaScript make
it act like a poor man's field exit (actually more like Enter).
