Answer 1

If you are trying to do two different things depending on which method was used, bind handlers to listen for .click() and .keyup(), then check for the keycode

var k = (window.event) ? event.keyCode : e.keyCode; 

Or something on the order of this if you need

$(document).bind("click keyup", function(){    //check keycode    var e = (window.event);    var k = (e)?event.keyCode:e.keyCode;    if(k==9){       //tab code    }else if(e.type=='click'){       //click code    }  });
