Check out my code sample here: http://pastebin.com/D1ZctG11
The gist is: If you have a select box expanded (either via the keyboard or mouse), jquery's key events do not seem to fire - at least not in Mac Chrome.
Are there any workarounds?
My end goal is to select what the user has typed while the select box is expanded when using the optgroup
element.
