Question

Answer 1

Unfortunately not - the keyCode property of the event object is only sent on key-based events (for obvious reasons), which is why it wouldn't work onfocus, onclick etc.

There aren't any other JavaScript ways of doing it - although there is a potential solution if you use flash - but that seems somewhat overkill for your requirements...
