<p><em>This section is informative</em></p>
<p>Alphanumeric keyboards are the most common way for users to generate keyboard events.
This section provides an overview of standard keyboards and their physical layouts.

<h4 id="h-keyboard-sections" resource="#h-keyboard-sections"><span property="xhv:role" resource="xhv:heading"><span class="secno">1.1.1 </span>Keyboard Sections</span></h4>
<p>When discussing keyboard layouts, it is convenient to divide the standard keyboard into distinct sections
and to label each row.
</p>
<figure id="figure-keyboard-sections">
<img src="images/keyboard-sections.svg" width="684" height="225" alt="The five general sections of a standard keyboard">
<figcaption>Fig. <span class="figno">1</span> <span class="fig-title">The five general sections of a standard keyboard</span></figcaption>
</figure>
<p>These keyboard sections are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>The <em>Alphanumeric</em> section is the main part of the keyboard and is where most of the keyboard variation occurs.
When a user selects a keyboard layout, it is the keys in this sections that are most affected.
</li>
<li>The <em>Control Pad</em> and <em>Arrow Pad</em> sections contain the arrow keys and other editing keys.
</li>
<li>The <em>Numpad</em> (also known as the "numeric keypad" or "number pad") contains number and math keys to make it
easier to enter numeric data.
</li>
<li>And finally, the <em>Function</em> section contains miscellaneous function keys and special keys like Escape.
</li>
</ul>
<p>To make it easier to identify keys, the rows on the keyboard are named starting with "A"
for the bottom row up to "E" for the top row. The row of keys in the Function section are considered
to be in row "K".
These row names are consistent with those given in the ISO/IEC 9995-1 specification.
</p>
<p>Note that many keyboards (both modern and legacy) have extra keys that do not fit neatly into the above sections.
Some of these keys are covered in the <a href="#key-media">Media Keys</a> section.

<p>The standard "101" keyboard (commonly referred to as the "US layout") is the only layout that uses the <code class="code">'Backslash'</code> code.
All the other layouts omit this key and expand the <code class="code">'Enter'</code> key to occupy
two-rows.

</figure>
<p>Modern standard "101"-layout keyboards actually contain 104 keys: 61 keys in the alphanumeric section
and 43 keys in the numpad, control pad, arrow pad and function sections.
The "101" name for this keyboard layout dates to the time when this standard keyboard did in fact contain
101 keys. The two <code class="glyph">'OS'</code> keys,
and the <code class="glyph">'Menu'</code> key were
added later to bring the total to 104 keys.

<p>The alternate "101" keyboard removes the <code class="code">'Backslash'</code> key to create a
large <code class="code">'Enter'</code> key and shrinks the <code class="code">'Backspace'</code>
key to make room for the <code class="code">'IntlYen'</code> key (The <code class="code">'IntlYen'</code> name comes from the
Japanese layout — in the Russian layout shown above this key maps to a <code class="glyph">'\'</code>.

<p>The standard "102" keyboard is common throughout Europe and adds two keys that don't exist on the
"101" layouts:
The <code class="code">'IntlBackslash'</code> key next to the left shift key,
and the <code class="code">'IntlHash'</code> key which is partially tucked under the
<code class="code">'Enter'</code> key.

<p>The Korean "103" keyboard is based on the alternate 101 layout and adds two additional keys

These keys are

<p>In general, Apple keyboards follow the same layout as PC keyboards, but there are some differences as
noted in the following figure.

<h4 id="h-keyboard-laptops" resource="#h-keyboard-laptops"><span property="xhv:role" resource="xhv:heading"><span class="secno">1.1.9 </span>Laptop Keyboard Layouts</span></h4>
<p>The limited space available on laptop keyboards often means that the physical key layout needs
to be adjusted to fit all the required keys. The writing system keys in the Alphanumeric section tend
to remain intact, but the other keyboard sections are usually combined with other keys or
removed altogether.
</p>

</figure>
<p>In this Apple laptop keyboard, the right control key has been removed to make room for half-height
arrow keys and a <code class="code">'Fn'</code> key is added on the left.

<figcaption>Fig. <span class="figno">10</span> <span class="fig-title">Sample PC laptop keyboard layout</span></figcaption>
</figure>
<p>PC laptop keyboards vary considerably, but this sample keyboard demonstrates some commonly found aspects.
The control pad keys are added along the right-hand side with the arrow keys tucked in along the bottom.
The right shift key is often shrunk to make room for the up arrow key and the right OS key
is typically removed altogether.

<p>In the case where a content author wishes to rely on the mechanical layout of a mobile keypad, this specification suggests the keyboard configuration specified
in ISO/IEC 9995-8:2006 [<cite><a class="informative" href="#references-ISO-9995-8">ISO-9995-8</a></cite>], which defines a numeric keypad layout and secondary assignment
of Unicode characters in the range <code class="char">'\u0061'</code>..<code class="char">'\u007A'</code> to the number keys <code>2</code> through <code>9</code>, as a common layout appropriate to some
international uses.</p>

<h3 id="h-remote-control" resource="#h-remote-control"><span property="xhv:role" resource="xhv:heading"><span class="secno">1.3 </span>Media Remote Controls</span></h3>
<p>Many keyboards contain special keys to control media functions. Increasingly, many media devices, especially televisions, are Web-enabled. Hybrid keyboard/remote-control
devices are becoming more common. To meet the needs of these hybrid Web/media devices, this specification defines keys that are common as remote control buttons,
in addition to traditional keyboard keys.</p>
<p>Because of the smaller form factor, keys (or buttons) on a remote control will often be modal,
with one key performing different functions based on the context of the on-screen content.
Additionally, many keys serve as toggles, to change back and forth between two or more states
(see toggling keys).
These remote control buttons typically do not have modifier states so each button is assigned a
single function (like "Play", "Pause", "Up", "Menu" or "Exit").

<p>Virtual keyboards are software-based sets of keys, in a variety of different arrangements, commonly found on touch-screen devices. They are often modal, with the
ability to switch between different dynamic sets of keys, such as alphabetic, numeric, or symbolic keys. Because of the lack of physical constraints, these keyboards
<em class="rfc2119" title="MAY">MAY</em> present the widest range of characters, including emoticons and other symbols, and <em class="rfc2119" title="MAY">MAY</em> have keys not represented by Unicode [<a href="#references-Unicode">Unicode</a>]
or by the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events-key/#key-value-tables">key values</a>.
Wherever possible, however, virtual keyboards <em class="rfc2119" title="SHOULD">SHOULD</em> produce the normal range
of keyboard events and values, for ease of authoring and compatibility with existing content.</p>
<p>Chording keyboards, also know as chorded keysets or chord keyboards, are key input devices which produce values by pressing several keys in combination or sequence,
normally to simulate a full range of characters or commands on a reduced set of keys, often for single-handed use. A chording keyboard <em class="rfc2119" title="MAY">MAY</em> have additional mode
keys to switch between key values, and the number and type of keys pressed to produce a key value will vary, but the final key values produced by such keyboards
<em class="rfc2119" title="SHOULD">SHOULD</em> match the range of key values described in this specification.</p>
<p>For these and other alternative modal keyboards, the key values
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events-key/#key-Alphanumeric"><code class="key">'Alphanumeric'</code></a>,
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events-key/#key-CapsLock"><code class="key">'CapsLock'</code></a>,

Blue keys are present on all standard keyboards while green keys are only available on some keyboards.

<p>The name shown on each key is the <code>code</code> assigned to that key.
Wherever possible, the <code>code</code> names are based on the name for the US key
in that position (i.e., they are based on the US keyboard layout). For keys that don't
exist on the US keyboard, names from the UK or Japanese layouts are used instead.

<p>On some keyboards (notably Japanese and Korean) the spacebar is reduced in size to make room
for extra keys on the bottom row. These keys typically allow the users to change the current input
mode. Note that even though some of these Japanese and Korean keys occupy the same physical location on the
keyboard, they use different <code>code</code> values.
